So where is the stakeholder input for the new disciplinary procedures?
I'm thinking that if they on dishing out side need lawyers  from inception thru execution (so to speak) then we on the receiving side certainly need lawyers too.
They "fuzzy up" the new CPC, refuse to explain it, then threaten us with expulsion for not adhering to it.
I'm also wondering who and what is motivating this? What was the problem they thought needed to be fixed?
