B-9 BY-LAW 10 - GROUPS, SUB-GROUPS, ADVISORY COUNCIL AND RETIRED MEMBERS GUILD - Replacements for Advisory Council (AC) Director and Chair at AC meetings

Sponsor: Atlantic Regional Executive | Disposition: Carried

Whereas each PIPSC Group and consultation team is entitled to one representative to the AC; and

Whereas the AC director and AC Chair are elected from within the AC membership; and

Whereas the chair and the AC director are involved in the running of the meeting and not participating in the meeting which limits their ability to represent their constituency;

Therefore be it resolved that By-Law 10.4.3.3 be adopted as follows:

10.4.3.3 (NEW) The Chair and AC Director who are involved in presiding over the Advisory Council and Steering Committee meetings may designate a replacement from their Group or Consultation Team to attend the Advisory Council meetings to ensure their Group or Consultation Team is represented at those meetings. This shall in no way remove the status of the Chair or the AC Director as an AC member.
