Dear Mr. Dundler:

As directed by Prof. Basie von Solms, I am herewith sending the following attachment to be distributed to TC Chairs before they leave for Toulouse....

Dear Basie & TC Chairs:

I have been thinking about suggesting a change in bylaws to accomplish the following:

• Any TC can establish SIG's Special Interest Groups, which would be treated like Working Groups, but must convert either to a WG or disband after 5 years.
• Any TC or Working Group can establish a Task Force with a specific study mission, limited life span and be disbanded.
• The Specialist Group can have Working Groups, but must convert either to a TC or be dissolved.

I've had some feedback from Leon Strous and we generated the following schematic (see attachment 1).

Attachment 1 :


Second, I generated (not being a Parliamentarian) suggestions to changes in the bylaws (see attachment 2)

Attachment 2 :


Thirdly, I received suggestions relating to the bylaw changes from Leon Strous (see his comments & bylaw changes below)

Dear Gus,

in the meantime I took a closer look at the proposed changes to the Statutes  & Bylaws. I have made some additional changes, also in the order of the articles to make it a more logical sequence. In order not to confuse a lot of red coloured changes, I have used only red for a part that needs additional text / work.

The most notable changes concern the membership of a SG, this cannot be exactly the same as for a TC, especially not at the start of it. Let me know what you think of my proposal.

A suggestion which relates to your powerpoint figure is the name of a working group of an SG. I would just call this a working group and not a Special Working Group.

kind regards,
Leon
