</div>
<div class="x_gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">Those are good ideas, and reflect broader thinking beyond the question of how ALAC can be influential on PIR's governance. I think it's better if we make broader recommendations about PIR's
Board, rather than just saying "Give us a Board seat, please." That would appear selfish to many.</div>
<div class="x_gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><br>
</div>
<div class="x_gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">This dovetails with comments we can make about the difference between the role of a Board (standard corporate form, clear role in governance, ultimate authority within the organization; binding
decisions) and a "Stewardship Council" (not standard, no clear role, definitely not ultimate authority, non-binding -- unless the By-Laws or Charter (Articles of Incorporation) that say otherwise).</div>
<div class="x_gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><br>
</div>
<div class="x_gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">We should be making broader recommendations about governance structure, in any event -- beyond our role and beyond the Board. This is a good reminder to do so.</div>

be representatives of 501c(3) non-profits or ASBLs from Brussels? Those same people
<i>might</i> be in the At-Large but that wouldn’t be why they are on the board of PIR.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
