nuff sed Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Perhaps most other conferences have decided to 'stick with organizational protocol' instead of telling the GC that they no longer have authority over Unions and Conferences and if the GC doesn't like it....TOUGH.....

teresaq Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 According to the manual the GC doesn't have authority over the unions in this regard. It is to the unions discretion, solely, as I understand it. which would make the GC overstepping their boundaries to interfere.

Woody Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Laws and Rules and Procedures established are meant to be followed.

nuff sed Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Yeah, I suppose that the Columbia Union might possibly decide that we don't have to keep the Sabbath anymore and have a special session to do away with it. Nuff Sed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
