    It would be good to see a clear role description for these people. It’s a bit vague to title it ‘Europe’ or ‘Africa’. This would enable both the role holder and others to put their time to the best possible use. Also a clear definition of role for those entrusted with the apects. In addition, these people should assess their role and on an annual basis highlight what they see as their priorities. In the meantime, many thanks for the work done so far and my unity for the future. Thank You.

      Thank you for your comment! In fact, this publication is intended to provide an immediate update on the allocation of tasks to the elected Councillors. We plan to introduce them in future publications, sharing their stories, backgrounds, life journeys and roles through interviews or articles. Of course, this cannot be done in a single publication but will be spread over several instalments in the coming months.
