The following books are maintained by the Area 15 Current Practices Committee. At the end of each two year rotation, a copy of the books are printed and distributed to all of the Area Officers
and District Chairs, and placed into the Archive.
In an effort to help keep the body up to date, the Current Practices committee is also making available the most current version. Updates are highlighted.
The Book of Motions is a chronological record of
every motion that has come before the Area body for discussion, along with
the result of the motion - pass or fail.
The Book of Current Practices is a document which includes only the motions which dictate how Area 15 functions today. Obsolete motions are not included in the Book of Current Practices.
To clarify, let’s look at a simple example...
Motion A passes for the Treatment Committee to receive $100 every quarter for the purchase of literature. At that point in time, Motion A would be the current practice.
However, a few years later, Motion B passes for the Treatment Committee to receive $200 every quarter for the purchase of literature.
Clearly, Motion B supersedes Motion A.
At that point, Motion A would be removed from the Book of Current Practices and only Motion B would remain, as that is the current practice.
