Merging the CPO and CTA categories for directors would also require changes in the requirements for Executive Committee and Nominating Committee representation. This increases the flexibility the CPO and CTA directors have when electing their representatives to the Executive Committee. Second, Article X would be amended to merge the two CPO and CTA subcommittees of the Nominating Committee. It would not, however, totally eliminate the distinction between the two categories. The third member could, however, come from either primary membership category.
Additions are underscored and deletions are stricken through.
