The final version of the Terms of Reference have been posted for approximately four weeks. We will consider this version of the Terms of Reference approved. I will be working with Infoway to begin the process for an election of the HL7 Canada Council.

If you are interested in becoming an elected member of the Council (4 members to be elected), stay tuned for further information.

Thank you to everyone who spent time to review, comment and participate in the discussions.

Melva
HL7 Canada Chair

Thanks for your comments Thomas.
We did discuss jurisdictional representation being geographical on the teleconference, but we didn't make a change to it.

We didn't discuss a requirement of having someone second a nomination.

I'd be interested in others comments about these two potential changes to the Terms of Reference. Please respond to this thread.

Thanks,
Melva

Hi Melva,

Sorry for my late review.
Please take a look at my comments.

Best Regards,
Thomas Zhou

Comment: New eligible candidates are encouraged to join the council, and recommended candidates need a second to compete for the council members.

1.1.1 No single jurisdiction may have direct or indirect personnel holding more than one-third of the seats on the HL7 Canada Council.
Comment: it is recommended that at least either one of members comes from west and east Canada.

Here is the final version of the HL7 Canada Terms of Reference for review. The review period is open until end of day December 18th. Any comments are received and responded to. If no comments are received, this version will be considered to be approved.
