**Notice of Motion:

Whereas the Vancouver Local Bylaws speak to coverage for absences of the President, 1st Vice President, 2nd Vice President, 3rd Vice President, Grievance Officer, and Secretary Treasurer;

And Whereas the Vancouver Local Bylaws have no mention regarding coverage for absences of executive members other than those listed above;

And whereas long uncovered executive absences can impede the business of the local;

Therefore, be it resolved that the Vancouver Local Bylaws include the following new language:

14.3(d) **New: In the event of a known absence of more than ten (10) days of an executive member other than the President, 1st Vice President, 2nd Vice President, 3rd Vice President, Grievance Officer, or Secretary Treasurer, the executive committee is empowered to select a temporary replacement from the current elected shop stewards of the Vancouver local until the incumbent of the executive committee position can return to their duties.
