Decision-making procedure Clause Samples

A decision-making procedure clause outlines the formal process by which parties to an agreement make collective decisions. Typically, it specifies who has the authority to propose, discuss, and vote on matters, and may detail voting thresholds, meeting requirements, or methods for resolving deadlocks. This clause ensures that all parties understand how decisions will be reached, promoting transparency and reducing the risk of disputes over governance or operational issues.
Decision-making procedure. When the committee agrees on an interpretation of the provisions of the collective agreement over which the dispute has arisen, the Commission shall issue a directive to that effect. When the committee does not reach such an agreement, settlement of the dispute is then referred to the Commission, in order for it to make a decision. Regardless, the parties shall at all times retain the recourses available to them. 32.01 Term: This collective agreement shall be in effect from August 1, 2021 to April 30, 2025.
Decision-making procedure. Guests are to follow staff instructions. If staff ask a guest to do something or stop doing something, guests must comply immediately.
Decision-making procedure. Subject to the terms of this Section 3.3 (JSC Decision-Making), actions to be taken and decisions made by the JSC shall be taken or made only following a unanimous vote, with each Party’s representatives collectively having one (1) vote on behalf of such Party. For each meeting of the JSC, the attendance of at least one (1) representative of each Party shall constitute a quorum. Action or decision on any matter may be taken at a meeting, in-person, by teleconference, videoconference or by written consent. If the JSC fails to reach unanimous consent on a particular matter within [**] days of a Party having requested a formal vote on such matter (or, if such matter is urgent, within [**] days of such request), then either Party may submit such matter for resolution to the Executive Officers for attempted resolution by good faith negotiations within [**] days after such notice is received (or, if such matter is urgent, within [**] days of such request), subject to Section 3.3.2 (Final Decision-Making Authority). Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, only the phrases “determine,” “designate,” “confirm,” “approve,” or “determine whether to approve” by the JSC and similar phrases used in this Agreement will mean approval in accordance with this Section 3.3 (JSC Decision-Making), including the escalation and tie-breaking provisions herein. For the avoidance of doubt, matters that are specified to be reviewed and discussed by the JSC (as opposed to reviewed, discussed, and approved) do not require any agreement or decision by either Party and are not subject to the voting and decision-making procedures set forth in this Section 3.3 (JSC Decision-Making).

If the Commission decides to depart from the opinion expressed by the EDF Committee, or if the committee has not delivered a favourable opinion, the Commission shall either withdraw the proposal or, at the earliest opportunity, refer the proposal to the Council. The Council shall decide on it according to the same voting procedure as the EDF Committee within a period which, as a general rule, may not exceed two months. 4.
