Upon completion of the presentation Mr. Barnard offered three proposals on how to proceed from this point:


PRACTICE HANDBOOKS

1. Communicate the compiled materials via email, the newsletter and the UIA website to the member-sections.


PRACTICE HANDBOOKS

2. Compile and publish an outline useable by a member-section to develop its own Practice Handbook specific to its local practices. Mr. Barnard offered to develop the outline.

3. Update the Practice Handbook Compilation on a three year cycle utilizing the PPC/Secretariat Questionnaire as a means to obtain updated data.
