Yes, as far as I understand, the Recall Committee's decision is final.<br>
Article 3.5(3) of the CPM gives the Recall Committee the power to<br>
"determine the outcome", not merely to suggest or report to some other<br>
party. The Board also stated "The Recall Committee will report the<br>
outcome to the Policy Development Working Group. The decision of the<br>
Recall Committee is final." (That is in a document from the Board<br>
that might not have been published, but is referenced from page 3 of<br>
the Recall Committee's Working Procedure document.)<br>
<br>
The Recall Committee gave their decision in paragraph 19 of the "Final<br>
Determination" document: "19. The Committee therefore determines that<br>
a recall of both the co-Chairs is justifiable in the circumstances,<br>
and that both the co-Chairs be recalled with immediate effect.".<br>

<br>
Yes, the last sentence of paragraph 20 of the Recall Committee's<br>
report is a suggestion; it is not binding: "The Committee suggests<br>
that the Board coordinate with the PDWG to find an adequate transition<br>
mechanism until the next election."<br>
