_SAANICH PENINSULA AND GULF ISLANDS REVIEW

‘Wednesday, May 6.

WHAT’S YOUR VIEW?
Editor, The Review, Sir: .

Matters of principle: whether the
Board could in effect order a

_ ‘Trustee to sign a document and
whether a Trustee in conducting
Board business can consult

own. Initiative.

The first principle is an in-
ternal matter and my position on
this I, as an individual, will not
sign any order or ducument that I
do not subscribe to nor am fully
responsible for, whoever may so
order. 7

The.second principle, carried
to its “‘logical’’ extreme means a
Trustee could not. discuss school
matters: with any. ratepayer
whom he. is supposed to

“represent, without the Board’s
permission to do so. My. position
on this principle is that under

Section 89 (2) of the Public
Schools Act committees and
. individual trustees lack authority
to act otherwise than as in-.. &
dividuals and the Board lacks
authority to delegate its responsi- ¢
bilities to selected individuals. To }
represent the public properly, a
Trustee must obtain the public’s
view and he must obtain all the
information on a subject. that he
possibly can. I think I. am
authorized by the Public Schools
Act and the ratepayers who put
me in office todo so. Tohave to &
ask the Board’s permission to ff
interview people is absolutely
unacceptable. |
