Constantine, my involvement in this process to date has been limited to select a for or against and a couple of comments. I have no idea how one would get council to extend the expiry date. To be honest I don't want to invest the time to try so maybe this is a proposal that will have to wait for next year. It doesn't seem to be grabbing much attention the way it is written...and if it weren't for the fact that I am trying to visit each proposal to give a thumbs up or down I probably would not have spent any time on this. Having said that I do, as I said, agree that Membership Rights/Benefits are missing and should be articulated.
Cheers
Richard
