Sarah Jamie Lewis announces her candidacy for the Major Grants Review Committee

I outlined my views on this 3 months ago in the Code of Ethics thread. And at several points in the main MGRC thread.

RE: Accountability. The community will hold members to whatever standard the community collectively enforces through the ZIP and elections procedures. The MGRC will hold each other accountable through whatever processes it puts in place to ensure accountability. If the community doesn’t like the behavior of a particular candidate or an elected member then they are free to vote against that member, or appeal to the committee to adopt a process around that behavior if it is within the MGRCs remit.

As I have stated multiple times, if elected I will vote for proposals that demand transparency and enforce strict procedures regarding MGRC members actual or perceived conflicts of interest.

Should any other candidates wish to outline what policies they would like the MGRC to adopt I will happily consider them and document my reasons for voting for or against them, but I’m not going to comment on hypothetical/unwritten/unseen/latent codes of ethics.
