General Warranties of the Conference

 

In all its proceedings the World Service Conference of Al-Anon shall observe the spirit of the Traditions:

1. that only sufficient operating funds, including an ample reserve, be its prudent financial principle;
2. that no Conference member shall be placed in unqualified authority over other members;
3. that all decisions be reached by discussion, vote and whenever possible, by unanimity;
4. that no conference action ever be personally punitive or an incitement to publc controversy;
5. that though the Conference serves Al-Anon, it will never perform any act of government and that, like the fellowship of Al-Anon Family Groups which it serves, it shall always remain democratic in thought and action.
