[Lnc-business] Point of Inquiry - Article 7.6

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

On a separate note, I disagree with my colleagues that alternates should
not be expected to attend meetings or participate regularly on the LNC
business list.  In region 1, most members here will not vote for alternates
who cannot commit to make meetings, and that is one reason Mr. Bowden
resigned his seat as he was aware that was Region 1's expectations.  It
severely hurts the region not to have their alternate present.  I know not
everyone shares my opinion.  It is one reason I favour the elimination of
the alternate structure since At-large reps (nor officers - with the
exception of the Chair/Vice-Chair relationship) have alternates.  Most
other organizations ran under RONR find this whole thing very odd that we
do.
