RE: [council] IGO INGO Final Issue Report & Motion for Council
Good points Avri.
I have no objection to the charter motion being amended as you request.
If Thomas, in his capacity as seconder does not object, that will be OK.

Hi,
Thanks.
I knew it was in there, and I was just missing it.
I was also pretty sure the acronyms were included for consideration but
could not find the quotables.
One point, while I support the inclusion of draft charters in the issues
report, in fact think I took part in making the recommendation, I did not
expect that either:
- there were the final charters
- that they would not be separated from the issues report to be free
standing and open to edits, if necessary. A final issue report is not
amendable by the council, yet a charter ought to be. These charter
offerings in the issues report were supposed to suggestions and open for
change. this is part of the need to balance the convenience of a staff
produced charter and possible restrictions of a staff produced charter.
So thanks for separating it into a separating document. If possible I would
like to ask that this be made a general practice before the next vote for
charter approval and that it be referenced specifically in the motion. If
possible I would like to ask that the charter motion be amended for this
technicality.
thanks
avri
