The constitution and by-laws of said rating bureau shall also contain the condition that all meetings of the governing body of said rating bureau shall be held either in Chicago, Illinois or in Indianapolis, Indiana.

The insurance commissioner of the state of Indiana shall have no right to approve any such rating bureau as a rating bureau in the state of Indiana until the aforesaid conditions are met by such bureau.
