				  cooperation and collaboration.
(i)
Composition
. The JNET Executive Council will be comprised of
				  chief executives from the justice and justice-affiliated organizations
				  identified in this subparagraph. Agencies that provide information by means of
				  JNET to JNET Executive Council member agencies may petition the JNET Executive
				  Council and be granted membership based on a majority vote of the JNET
				  Executive Council. Given the significance of JNET to the administration's
				  overall public safety initiatives, participants will be required to regularly
				  represent their respective agencies at JNET Executive Council meetings. If the
				  participant on the JNET Executive Council is not the chief executive, the
				  designee must serve as a high-level decision maker from the agency.

				  under Executive Order, representation by the agencies in this clause is seen to
				  be critical to the success of JNET and is strongly encouraged. As with the

				  be required to select a permanent designee who will represent the agency at
				  JNET Executive Council meetings.
