Wording of rule changes

Several times in the recent past we have seen some good rules proposed but only to be defeated at the voting stage because of poorly worded proposals . Given that many members are not native English speakers, or lawyers used to writing things in a particular or concise way - is their not some merit in NCA's submitting their proposals and for the class rules experts/IRSA/ISAF to write the actual wording that appears in the class rules? It may bring its own problems , but I'm not sure effectively excluding a large chunk of the NCA's from submitting rule changes is perfect either. Um, maybe thats a bit strong , but you get my drift...

I wish I had read this first before reading your tank posing. And I am again intrigued – just how long have you been a RSA NCA Officer. ?

One might suggest not very long. Hang in there for few months – you will see it happening as it always does.
There is a lot of back ground discussion taking place even now.

David ,
I'm not sure why it is your posts always seem to have such a negative slant - but throwing aspersions at my personal experience or competence isn't appreciated. Not that its any of your business , but its several years since I was asked to serve as NCA rep and also National registrar.
I'm not sure what you think is going to keep "happening as it always does" - but my agenda is no more than to raise and start a discussion on the topic . And yes, I do know their has been some discussion about this previously - perhaps it needs a more thorough interrogation though....
