Conference questions not quite up to par! (contd)


30.
Would Conference revisit, discuss and make recommendations on violence and personal conduct?

In recent times it has become apparent that there is disharmony within the Fellowship with predators, bullies and violent members continuing to make members feel unsafe, frightened, intimidated and harassed.

In some situations police have been involved and arrests made. However, this does not stop the individuals from continuing with their unacceptable behaviour.

In some situations group conscience have discussed the safety of others and refused entry to such individuals, ensuring the group is not in conflict with the 12 Traditions and our way of life.

Background

AA Structure Handbook P82 Violence and Personal Conduct
5.1 Violence
5.2 Personal Conduct Matters
P84 About Behaviour

Terms of Reference No. 7 There have been several submissions covering this topic and a question has been selected that encompasses all areas of the subject matter with appropriate background material.

Comment: Again it is not a question of guidance (which is already available) but implementation. See here for example.

Cheers
