Each RA project or event, including conferences and meetings, is a separate project and will need its own team and Coordinator and will be self-funding unless decided otherwise by the Secretaries.
Information regarding any strategic decisions will be circulated to the appropriate team or project for comments. No reply will be understood as no opinion.
Not attending a meeting implies a willingness to delegate decision making to those who do attend
Decisions made at meetings are deemed final
When a person or group takes on responsibility for a particular action or project, it should be agreed by all concerned at the time of accepting responsibility whether either the person or group has to refer back to the Secretaries (or appropriate persons) – maybe more than once – before making final decisions or taking action or the person or group can go ahead without referring back (unless there is some unforeseen or major development.
