I, on the other hand, am concerned with what 'should' happen, I expect 
decisions made, whether they conform to the rules, standing orders etc., 
or not; to be recorded, (together with the names of those arriving at 
them), at the very least, so that they can be struck down, confirmed or 
revisited later. In this case, having regard to the material quoted by 
Mark, it would appear that the decision fails to meet the requirements 
needful for it to be considered binding, however as the decision arrived 
at has not been recorded then it would appear not to be a 'decision' at 
all as no-one could be bothered to record it. I cannot accept that we the 
members should be required to accept that the correct forum has made an 
appropriate decision, or the decision itself, based on what an individual 
may or may not have a hazy recollection of at a later date.
