CB.13:7 - Conformance Checklist

For the shared decision arrangement, ask:

  • Are its common subjects, affected parties and retained local decisions intelligible?
  • Does the authority to adopt it come from an actual agreement or applicable institution?
  • Is consultation distinguishable from the procedure that produces a decision?
  • Can representatives obtain views, act within a bounded term and return reasons, and can their constituents replace them?
  • Can an ordinary question and a dispute pass through proposal, decision, execution and challenge with available people and resources?
  • If a named external procedure is selected, have these participants accepted its actual obligations, including its treatment of abstention, absence and amendment?
  • Has adoption occurred, and have the appointment, access and support conditions become effective?
  • Is there a workable amendment, expiry and challenge route, including a challenge involving the decision-makers?

A small voluntary agreement can answer these questions briefly. A stronger institutional or legal claim needs its own applicable evidence and qualified result.
