6.7 Slalom Committee Coordinator Roles 75/25

Post by Canadian Paddler » Sun Nov 14, 2021 5:19 pm

As this is a change to the Terms of Reference (ToR) under 9.7 this requires a 2/3rd simple majority at the meeting and approval by the British Canoeing Board of Directors to be adopted.
Under the current ToR, people are voted onto the slalom committee, and then after that the coordinator roles are decided and allocated. There are a number of factors to consider:
● It is harder to get committee nominees. Not many people will volunteer for a committee position with no idea what they may be asked to take on. If the responsibilities are identified in advance, potential nominees will have a better idea of what they are being asked to do.
● There is a better chance of getting a nominee that has expertise / an interest in the area. Less chance of a role being allocated to someone with no interest or expertise in the area.
● The committee is keen to see greater diversity amongst its members, linking in with the British Canoeing Equality Diversity and Inclusion commitments and will actively seek nominations to support this aim.
5.3.d and 5.3.e will also be switched in order to keep the list of members together rather than separated by a term referring to co-option. Page 202
5.3 Committee Members
a. Up to six committee members, each serving for approximately two years, with three members being elected at the ACM each year.
b. A paddler representative elected every even year by a ballot of the Ranked Members
c. A representative from each of the National Association Slalom Committees.
d. A representative of British Canoeing Performance Department.
e. The British Canoeing Slalom Committee may only co-opt additional members, until the next ACM, to fill casual vacancies.

Committee Members will be appointed to co-ordinate particular areas of the sport. Identification of priority areas will be undertaken as part of reviews of the four-year plan and published before the ACM each year.

Old. Fat. Slow. Bad tempered. And those are my good points
