RICS Governing Council will be debating the need for Democracy within RICS at its Assembly on 23/24 November 2009. We the undersigned RICS members believe the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors should remain a Members Institution, the wholesale introduction of Quangos to Member Boards could seriously undermine democratic accountability within RICS and no decisions on this issue should be made by RICS until it has been properly debated by Governing Council.

I am in aggreement that we should keep our Democratic status. The Quango route is definitely not the way RICS should take .RICS [paid] staff and Non-members [ however qualified] should be removed from the Voting list before the Voting takes place this year

AGREED. stop the quangos. members need to have the final say on how RICS is run.

The accountability has gone out the window lately. very disappointed in the direction they are taking us. keep the vote with the members

We need to keep power firmly in the hands of the members. non-members should not be influencing our governing structure at all.
