All representative positions will be reviewed periodically to assess their strategic importance to the Association. A more effective and concrete process for investigating and proposing representatives and for evaluating them on a periodic basis will be developed, with the involvement of appropriate SIS's. All AALL representatives to other groups will be fully funded, effective Oct. 1997 for FY98. In the future, this may also include a report to the AALL Executive Board. He shall submit a budget request at the time of the annual budget preparation to cover anticipated expenses.
Representatives have the authority to spend up to the budgeted amount.
This could occur when AALL was unable or unwilling to fund a particular representation, or as an initial effort prior to requesting AALL funding and support.
