INTENT: To broaden the responsibility for transparency in communication, ensuring it includes both messages about and from the Virtual Region—especially in relation to interactions with the Virtual Region and the World Service Office.
IMPLEMENTATION: Amend the the Bylaws.
COST: None
PRIMARY PURPOSE: To make sure that trusted servants and committees chairs are informed about all relevant communications, whether the communication is from the World Service Office, the Region, other Regions, or Service Bodies of OA.
RATIONALE: Currently the focus is limited to communications about the Virtual Region. This addition makes it clear that messages from the Virtual Region—including those about other parts of OA—should also be shared with the appropriate service bodies, or committee. It supports OA’s values of transparency, accountability, and connection across all levels of service.
