[council] clarification of yesterdeays action regarding motion made by Caroline
fellow council members
we are in need of a clarification by the names
council of the action taken yesterday regarding the formation of a working group
to be headed by yj.
i am formally asking that yj please elaborate her
position to the council as to her personal understanding of the scope
of the working group we approved yesterday.
i am also requesting that a clear mandate be
formulated as to exactly what the scope of the working group that was
approved yesterday was to be and am requesting a clarification of the specific
motion made by caroline and the understanding by each member of the council
.
we need to clear this up as quickly as possible.
i am now presenting my personal impressions
below.:
discussions with some of the members of the council
after the meeting last night (including caroline chicoine, who made the
motion) indicate that the motion was made with the intention of setting up
a working group to review the dnso review concerns expressed by yj in her
correspondence to the council and the results of this working group be presented
to the council for council review and inclusion in the dnso committee
review report to be submitted to the board.
to the best of my knowledge there was never any
indication that the working group proposed was to replace the dnso review
committee. i cannot locate in the webcast record nor in the scribes
minutes any mention of DISBANDING the review committee and replacing
it with the working group (only that a working group to address the dnso review
was to be formed) there was no clear indication of the scope of the group in the
recorded webcast and no indication in the recorded webcast that this group was
to "replace the dnso committee".
we need to clarify this as soon as possible in
order to avoid any conflicts.
i am quite comfortable with the establishment of
this working group by personally do not recall nor can i see in the webcast any
comments or resolution by the council that this working group was to
replace the current dnso committee headed by theresa .
please, as soon as possible, let us get this
clarified before this becomes a serious issue.
if necessary, we can arrange a teleconference to
clarify but i am asking for assistance and direction in this matter from ALL OF
YOU.
in order to avoid any conflicts in this area i am
asking for a volunteer to mediate this problem and am personally standing aside
with respect to any further action on this specific issue. there are 18 other
good people who can "work this specif issue out" and whatever you all decide
here acceptable with me
