7. Business Arising
7.1 Governance Review Report Recommendations,
Report of the Governance Committee
(GC20190530-53)
The Chair of the Governance Committee, Tom Potter, thanked members of
Council for their work at the previous meeting reviewing the governance
recommendations that would require an Act or regulation amendment. The
committee Vice-Chair, Jonathan Rose, reminded members that decisions about
a possible selection process for the members of Council and committees
would be made by Council and not by one individual committee.
It was moved by Tom Potter:
#27-That Council approve the recommendation to adjust the mandate of
the Human Resources Committee to focus on managing the Registrar's
employment relationship (hiring, performance reviews) and strategic HR
matters such as staff member diversity and equity policies in bylaws.
An amendment was moved by Michelle Miner Seal, seconded by Tim Gernstein:
#27-That the motion be amended to strike "such as staff member
diversity and equity policies in bylaws" and insert "related to Council
members, the Registrar, and strategic HR policies such as diversity,
equity, code of conduct and compensation."
A further amendment was moved by Nicola Powadiuk, seconded by Tim
Gernstein, and
CARRIED,
That the motion be amended by deleting the words "Council members".
