2024-12 – AGM 2024 – Resolution 1d – FISTF Board members may serve on their national association board/committee

Preamble

Proposal: To authorise the Board to make changes to the FISTF Statutes, as outlined below, to take effect immediately following the 2024 Congress.

Background:

The FISTF Statutes can only be changed at a FISTF Congress or Extraordinary Congress. It is established practice to review the Statutes prior to each Congress to determine whether amendments are required.
The Board has reviewed the Statutes and is proposing the following changes, many of which are a result of discussions and decisions made at the 2023 AGM.

d) Article 9.1 – amend to clarify that members of the FISTF Board may serve on their national association board/committee

There has previously been some confusion as to whether members of the FISTF Board may also serve as office holders in their national association. This arose from the wording of Article 9.1 of the Statutes.  It is proposed to amend Article 9.1 to make it clear that, while a member of the FISTF Board may NOT serve as a national delegate to the FISTF AGM or Congress, they are not precluded from serving on their national baord/committee.

(Submitted by Eliot Kennedy, General Secretary, FISTF)
