the Chair has a right to interpret rules carte blanche.
We do not accept our Chair as if he was the Bishop of Rome; infallible in all things. As the presiding officer, the Chair's principal role is to interpret rules but not 'carte blanche'. He is constrained by the RoP in the first instance. Here's the good thing. Every other member also has an unfettered right to interpret said rules. And since for our purposes, the Chair is and must be a member in ordinary, every other member has the right to challenge any and every interpretation of the Chair. Here's the kicker. Every member retains the absolute right to petition every other member to your point of view. We call that a vote. I say again, if you fell aggrieved by the declaration, then there is a remedy. Exercise it if you must. - CAS ============================== Carlton A Samuels Mobile: 876-818-1799 *Strategy, Planning, Governance, Assessment & Turnaround* =============================
