(3) The Board is composed of:

a) a Treasurer and

b) a Chief of Administration

reasoning and motivation

Out of living practice among the PPI board there had had been no positive outcome from having two chairs. On the contrary the situation that two co-chairs have shared responsibilities have led sometimes to conflict situation, where any responsible action was avoided. A living and vital leadership is necessary to have a working board.

From the experience from last year some regulation has to be found if a Chair becomes vacant.
