Results

1.1 Renumeratie van mandaten - Réemunération des mandats

Vote 1: (Postponed)

13 green / 14 red

• Discussions during the GA:
  • These number don't mean anything, 22,5% have to be specified and we need a distinction between full-time and part-time mandates.
  • A percentage of the national revenues should go towards the crews, in order to allocate a budget.
  • The underlying question is how strongly the elected people should be connected to the party (does one deal with his/her budget all alone,or is he/she getting it back from the party with help ?
  • Distinction between full time job versus city counselors.
  • Maximum/minimum wage for elected people (put a cap to avoid people who come just for the money).
  • Budget of the party could be voted on the GAs so that we know what will happen to the money.
  • More proposals will be made on a next GA.
  • We have to use crowd funding.
  • Should the elected people who get paid give some money to the party or should they give all their remuneration to the party that will retrocede them back a "salary" ?
