The Rules Committee Report

December 2007

 
The Rules Committee is now until March 15 reviewing submitted rule changes and commenting on the Discussion Forum. Debbie Brewer has provided an on line submission form for suggested rule changes at http://www.nasma.us/Forms/RuleChange.asp. When these are submitted on line, I copy them to the Forum and then to the web site at http://www.nasma.us/DotNet/submitted_rule_book_changes_for.htm so members can review them and provide input to their Directors or to the Committee Members. When rule changes are submitted on line, they cannot be changed, even by the chair. If changes are suggested by the Committee, the submitter must give permission for the change and resubmit it. This maintains the integrity of the submitter and the Committee.

Submission guidelines are the Rules Chair will post all rule changes received verbatim. The submitter's name will be withheld. Consequently, the merit of the rule change will be determined on the justification alone.

There are a number of rules changes submitted and we have a good interest in the process and thoughtful submits. Because of this, I'll be recommending the rule book be published every year instead of every two years. The Rules Committee will meet at Shelbyville to decide as a group which rules will make it out of Committee for the BOD to vote on.

I would like to express my appreciation to those submitting changes and to the Committee for their hard work
