The above change is proposed as a trial period for the final year of the proposed two year trial period put forward at the EGM held in October 2024 where it was decided to create a second Safety Officer position to help balance the increasing workload.

Current Constitution:

The role of Safety Officer is split between two club members who share an equal workload and are to work together to help one another fulfill the role of Safety Officer. The Safety Officers shall endeavour to ensure that any measures that the committee deems necessary for the safety of all club members be implemented. The Safety Officers shall be suitably experienced for this task in the eyes of the outgoing committee. These measures, in the form of a Safety Paper, shall be recorded in the minutes at the first committee meeting and subsequently may be amended at further meetings. The Safety Officers may recommend removal of membership of any person who fails to heed the Officers' instruction.

The Safety Officers will oversee the development of river running skills up to and including Level Three Kayak Skills proficiency. The Safety Officers will ensure the availability and visibility of the club Safety Document to all members.

The Safety officers must be one of the following 2 options:
1) Be of level 4 river kayak skills standard
2) Be of level 3 river kayak skills standard AND have the endorsement of the outgoing committee

Proposed Constitutional change:

The role of Safety Officer is split between two club members who share an equal workload and are to work together to help one another fulfil the role of Safety Officer. Although the workload will ideally be split equally the roll will be split into Safety Officer and Assistant Safety Officer. The Assistant Safety Officer will endeavour to help the Safety Officer in their responsibilities. The Safety Officer will guide and mentor the Assistant Safety Officer so that ideally they can be the Safety Officer the following year. The completion, and subsequent passing, of the Safety Statement will be tasked to the Safety Officer while Risk Assessments and After Trip Forms will be ideally split between the Safety Officers throughout their time on Committee.

The Safety Officers shall endeavour to ensure that any measures that the committee deems necessary for the safety of all club members be implemented. The Safety Officers shall be suitably experienced for this task in the eyes of the outgoing committee. These measures, in the form of a Safety Paper, shall be recorded in the minutes at the first committee meeting and subsequently may be amended at further meetings. The Safety Officers may recommend removal of membership of any person who fails to heed the Officers' instruction.

The Safety Officers will oversee the development of river running skills up to and including Level Three Kayak Skills proficiency. The Safety Officers will ensure the availability and visibility of the club Safety Document to all members.

The Safety officers must be one of the following 2 options:
1) Be of level 4 river kayak skills standard
2) Be of level 3 river kayak skills standard AND have the endorsement of the outgoing committee

This is not the current Constitution as it is missing the changes from last year so I will quickly find the correct one!
