Thread:Executive Committee (3)

I just now understand executive committee as being different to Nominated Members, sorry. This will have to be another area I would question, in relation to my questioning of the Nominated Members. I don't see why in such a small Council that we need an executive with dicision making powers beyond the elected members. If for example, one or two elected members manage to single handedly nominate 4 Nominated Members each, and then those two Elected Members and their 8 Nominated Members were to become an executive committee, we would see a rather strong and impenetrable power base established if and when other elected members became aware of the stack. I realise Executive Committees are common on Councils, but I fail to see their need in our case. --Leighblackall 20:39, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
