117mismanagement o f powers and resources, thoug h it i s a problem arising from initialsociety set up.Because of the magnitud e of the Annua l Genera l meeting (AGM), whic h is normall yconducted for one day and once every year, much time is used to go through minutes ofprevious meeting and implementation of resolutions. The little time remaining is givento answer some few questions that were presented from Branch AGMs, leavin g genuineand importan t questions arising from the report presented b y the central committee toremain unanswered. Some of the responses in the third factor above are caused by thisweakness. There is also a need to allow members who reside at the region where majorAGM i s conducte d t o atten d i f the y nee d to , instea d o f alway s hearin g fromrepresentatives on all resolutions passed. The decision should not contravene the law ofrepresentation.It is recommended that mini-committees should be formed to receive members concernsand question s arisin g from papers that were distribute d earlier to eac h member. Theresult of the mini - committee s should be sen t (in good time) to the majo r (regional)committee, which will tabl e them to the AGM, making the meeting more vibrant andmembers feelin g tha t they are full y represented . Sometime s some very important andconstructive questions arise during the meeting process that will need to be discussed ina participator y way but could not surface due to time constraint. The committee shouldcome with a more effective way of increasing members participation for building thesolidarity among them.
