- To call and preside over elections.
- To assent all motions going through the council, and ensure they are enacted.
- To appoint a Vice-President.

- To lead the Clerks of the group.
[edit] Term of Office
Appointed personally by the President, until retirement or removal by the President.
The vice-president should not be contested if he would like to become President after the retirement of an incumbant President, although there is no rule to enforce this etiquete.
[edit] Councillors
Elected representitives of members of the group.
[edit] Responsibilities
- To bring motions to the attention of the council.
- To vote on motions.
- To listen to query's of other members.
- To ensure members act within the policy of Wikipedia and in the policy of this group (when such a policy is put in place by the council)
[edit] Term of Office
Elected every year, in tranches of three. Elections are therefore held every four months.
A resigning councillor will be replaced in a by-election, called by the president.
The Presidential Councillor is appointed in a different way, and has the special role of presiding over the election of a new President, and is therefore disqualified from being a candidate for the Presidency, and cannot be appointed to the position of Vice Presidency immediately after being in this role.
[edit] Clerks
The 'handymen' of the group.
[edit] Responsibilities
- To archive old motions from the council.
- To act as election staff during council elections.
- To keep a general eye on the cleanliness of the group.
[edit] Term of Office
Clerks are nominated by the President, and are then approved/rejected by the full council.
If accepted, they are allowed to serve for up to eight months in their position, and they cannot then seek re-selection into the same position.
They can, however, seek re-election into one of the two other clerk positions in the group.
[edit] Other Points
- Each division of the group has its own sub-leader who is appointed by the council leader. They serve until they are removed from office by a full-council motion or resign.
- Any member has the right to approach a councillor and ask for a motion to be put to council.
- The role of the President and Vice President cannot be changed by council motion.
- The President, Vice President and Clerks do not have a vote in council.
PLEASE NOTE: This page contains policy and can only be changed by approved council motions.
