The term originated with the North American RALO which has had individual
members who are <u>unaffiliated with any ALS</u>. In the NARALO rules,
they are referred to as "unaffiliated individuals", but once
they join NARALO, the term "unaffiliated member" has been
used.<br><br>
You are correct that "unaffiliated member" is somewhat of a
contradiction in that members are implicitly "affiliated" with
the group of which they are a member. It has never been mentioned before,
but perhaps it needs to be rethought as we move to having such a category
in all RALOs.<br><br>

<dd>Thanks for distributing this - and a reminder to us all that we need
to finalise this process.<br><br>

</dd><dd>A couple of comments (and I am repeating myself here)<br><br>

</dd><dd>First, I think we have captured the main comments people have
made.&nbsp; On their interest in public interest/consumer issues, Iâ€�d
slightly rephrase to have just one sentence asking for their past
experience/activites or whatever in representing the public
interest/interests of end users. -= then end sentence.&nbsp; New sentence
to ask about past/current affiliations - making it clear that we want a
clear statement of their interests/involvement in public
interest/consumer issues.<br><br>

</dd><dd>My other comment - that is a LONG list of topics.&nbsp; Should we
shorten it.<br><br>

</dd><dd>Otherwise, I’m happy.<br><br>

</dd><dd>I think, down the track, we can consider whether we follow other
models in having one ALS for all unaffiliated members - but that can wait
until we have sufficient numbers to worry about<br><br>
