General Meetings of a company may only deliberate on subject matters pre-listed in the meeting’s agenda. Decisions taken in breach of that rule can be annulled, as established by judicial precedent. This sanction (nullity) is explicitly provided for by the law governing public limited companies or limited partnerships by shares.

However, General Meetings can validly adopt additional resolutions that naturally stem from items on the agenda (i.e., those that are a direct consequence of agenda items) or address miscellaneous matters, provided they are of minimal importance.
