Hi, I disagree, Reps Council has been a body with the authority to decide on resources and deal with possible conflicts for communities since day zero and Reps Council has an already recognized authority.
I don't understand what was not working well in your opinion and also I don't agree on the part that Council doesn't have time for that. I've been personally taking that responsibility for reviews from Council side for years and never expressed a lack of time. I raise this concern now because I've just received and email telling me that Council is not longer in charge of certain decisions that I understand that were not part of this module description when we first read it. Cheers.
