The 2019 Council on
Legislation may not have made
as many dramatic changes as the Council
three years ago did,
but it made several decisions that
will shape the future of Rotary.
Among the most
important,
the Council elevated the status of Rotaract clubs.
The change
broadens the definition of membership
in Rotary International to include
Rotaract clubs.
The change is intended to increase the support
that Rotaract
clubs receive from RI
and to enhance their ability to serve.
In many ways, the Rotaract experience will not change.
Rotary
clubs will still charter and sponsor Rotaract clubs.
Rotaract clubs will still
have their own standard constitution
and their own unique club experience.
Members of a Rotaract club will not be called Rotarians.
And Rotaract clubs
will not immediately pay dues
or receive other benefits, such as the official
magazine
that Rotary members receive.
The Board will determine a dues structure
over time.
The measure simply expands the definition of membership
in
Rotary International to include both
Rotary and Rotaract clubs.
Every three years,
representatives from Rotary districts
around the world meet in Chicago,
Illinois, USA,
to consider changes to the constitutional documents
that govern
Rotary International.
This year’s Council considered more than 100 proposals.
Dues increase
As for dues, the Council approved a modest increase
of $1 a year for each of three years,
beginning in 2020-21.
The previous
Council set dues for 2019-20
at $34 per half year.
With the increase, the dues that clubs pay
to RI
per member will increase to $34.50
per half year in 2020-21,
$35 per half year
in 2021-22,
and $35.50 per half year in 2022-23.
The dues will not be raised
again until
a future Council votes to change it
A seemingly small but intensely debated action
will reduce the
number of nonvoting members
at future Councils, by removing past RI presidents
and allowing only one RI Board director to attend but not vote.
But in some respects, the Council defined itself
as much by what
it did not do.
This year’s representatives resisted pressure
to limit some of
the flexibility that the 2016 Council granted clubs,
rejecting several measures
that would have
placed restrictions on clubs.
One unsuccessful measure would
have required clubs
to meet at least 40 times each year.
Many clubs have been using the innovative
and flexible club
formats to attract new members
and meet their current members’ needs.
Representatives also rejected proposals
to make it optional for
members to subscribe
to an official Rotary magazine and to reduce
the size of
the Council by half and have it meet every two years.
Exciting news!

Rotary International President Elect in 1977
the last case of Small Pox was
recorded

In his year as
president he started the process for Vaccinating every child
in the word by
starting with the Philippines.
Now on his 98th Birthday the global polio
irradiation initiative report
s their is only one strain of the virus left
active in the world
and the number of naturally occurring cases in the last
year was around 33
. Happy Birthday to an Australian Rotary living legend!

Camp Quality aims to provide a better life for every child living
with cancer in Australia and has been operating since 1983.
RC Karrinyup is a
strong supporter of the program.
On Sunday 14th April a group of RC Karrinyup
members
attended the Camp Quality “Middle Camp”
(for children aged 10 to 13) at
Woodman Point.
A sunny morning greeted the team for what is fast becoming
an
annual outing to visit Camp Quality.
The group received a very warm welcome and
quick briefing
by Camp Quality Coordinator Maddie See and were
quickly put to work
assisting with the many activities arranged for Middle Camp
(ages 9 – 12).
Undeterred by a few squally showers during the morning,
archery,
team building & flying fox were among the numerous pursuits
enjoyed by both
the kids and the Rotary Club members.
Morning tea and lunch were provided and
the team can all attest
to youthful exuberance and terrific cacophony that was
on display
in the food hall.
What a fabulous bunch of kids.
Our members are looking forward to next year already.
The Rotarians agreed they gained so much more
from the experience than
they gave
