I would like to draw our attention to provisions in the BC Charter
concerning the duties of a Committee's Chair:
4.1 General Provisions.
4.1.1 Chair Responsibilities. As set forth in §2.5.2(a), the
Vice-Chair for Finance and Operations will serve as Chair of the Finance
Committee; otherwise, the members of each committee shall elect a Chair
annually who, among other duties mentioned elsewhere in this Charter,
will:
a. Schedule meetings and develop agendas;
b. Conduct deliberations consistent with the consensus provisions in
§6.1;
c. Keep and publish (or direct others to keep and publish) minutes of
committee meetings and records of committee actions, which shall be made
available on the Private List (§7.2.2); and
d. Involve Business Constituency Members in the activities of the
committee, as appropriate.
4.1.2 Conflicts of Interest. Committee members have a duty to perform
their roles with diligence and loyalty to the Business Constituency and
will promptly disclose any and all conflicts of interest in a timely
fashion, recusing themselves from discussions and decisions whenever
there is an actual conflict or offering to recuse themselves in
situations which could be perceived to be a conflict.
Cheers,
LOR
