Thanks for this KT... If our Regional Community agrees with these headings and general structure (and I do personally) I assume we will also be taking suggestions for and discussing the merit of some subsections etc., in parallel with any finesse required or proposed to the above ... A sub section outlining any Form of Proxy that we may wish to use where a decision is called for with the exercise of a Vote (which might be relating to an Appointment or a Policy or Process outcome) here for example it would probably be housed under Sec C.12 Work Methods any cross reference to Sec D...
Also I for example wonder about the merit of removing the term "Elections" in Sec D and elsewhere preferring only 'Selections and Appointments' to be used and yet within this, recognising that a Poll/ Vote / Election is a process or often preferred "method" of an Appointment or Selections Process ... One that we may indeed choose to use but then allowing for a simple majority agreement or consensus outcome to be used and often in shorter order than what is required for a full electoral process for an appointment etc.,
I'm sure there is much more to consider and discuss but hopefully these comments will draw more form others and we can get a discourse started
I look forward to more reactions, comments and responses...
