Originated by National Board, on recommendation of the National Council Session Advisory Team and Dues Subgroup
Proposal
To amend the Credentials portion of the Blue Book of Basic Documents on page 26 following the Membership Dues and Procedures for Registration Section to create the following new procedure:
“Communications Procedures for National Board Dues Changes
Prior to any vote by the National Board to change membership dues structure or amount, Girl Scouts of the USA shall communicate with and seek input from local Girl Scout councils and National Council delegates on the proposed changes, intended use of the funds, and potential impact on the Girl Scout Movement. After action is taken by the National Board, there shall be a report to Girl Scout councils and National Council delegates of the decision taken and the impact of the dues change.”
Rationale
See pg. 51 in the NCS Workbook for the joint rationale for Proposals 2 & 3.
