Theos-World Re: TS Elections - Policy of Secrecy

Dear friends,

Let me try to summarize and extend a little the question of 
transparency of the functioning of our Society. 

The first level - and maybe we could call it outer - represent the 
documents and data which should be available to the overall public. 
These are: Memorandum and Rules and Regulations of the Society, which 
includes objects and aims of the Society, then Declarations of the 
Society, the actual Policy of the Society and official postal and e-
mail addresses of offices and officers on local, national and 
international level. The Society is obliged to publicly publish these 
documents and data to fulfill the demands of national and 
international laws. To fulfill the demands of the quality of 
Society's services the officers should be able to promptly respond to 
the inquiries of interested public and members.

The second level, inner, represent the documents and data which 
should be available to members only. These are: Minutes, Reports and 
Election documents of the Society's various bodies on local, national 
and international level. There are no technical obstacles any more to 
make these documents available and at the same time to prevent that 
they are reproduced and delivered in an unauthorized manner. The 
Society is obliged to make these documents available to its 
membership to fulfill the demands of its Rules and Regulations. And 
to fulfill the demands of the quality of Society's services the 
officers should be able to promptly respond to the inquiries of 
interested members regarding these documents.

The third level are policy making documents. The governing bodies on 
local, national and international level should establish the 
interaction between officers and members of governing bodies to 
facilitate the creation of policy making documents. The Society is 
obliged to establish such interaction to fulfill the demands of its 
Rules and Regulations.  

Anton
