 ===== Method of Working =====

+When decisions or advice involve the work of a Standing Committee or Working Party, Executive will normally consult as many specialists (usually members of the appropriate Standing Committee or Working Party) as possible, given the required timescale for decision making. The final decision will then normally be made following the advice of the Standing Committee Convenor. It is extremely unlikely that a decision involving a Standing Committee would ever need to be taken by the Executive only.

 ===== Decision Making =====
-Decision making is almost exclusively by discussion and mutual agreement. However, in the event that a vote becomes necessary, the Secretary and Treasurer shall have one vote each, and the Chairman the casting vote.
