Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general) / General meeting of shareholders
Portuguese term or phrase: membros da mesa
"Dos trabalhos e deliberações será lavrada, no Livro de Atas de Reunião, ata assinada pelos membros da mesa e pelos sócios presentes,..."

This is taken from the Articles of Association of a Brazilian company and refers to the General Meeting of Shareholders. I assume it means the chairman, secretary and whoever else is officiating at the meeting. What is the recognised term for this in UK English?
