Hello,

This email includes announcements about:

Conference Approval Track (CAT) material posted

The Conference Approval Track material has just been posted to www.na.org/conference. A Guide to World Services in NA (GWSNA) explains:

The Conference Approval Track contains a variety of material to be considered at the upcoming World Service Conference that was not included in the Conference Agenda Report. . . . Having a separate approval track from the CAR allows for materials intended for committees and boards, such as handbooks or service manuals, to be distributed directly to conference participants 90 days before the WSC, allowing time for delegates to workshop it in a manner that fits within their local community. Each local community can determine for itself how the material will be reviewed and how to direct their delegate. . . .

Items that typically are included in the CAT include the proposed NAWS Budget and project plans for the upcoming cycle, seating requests, and recommendations from the World Board, as well as other service- or WSC-related material.

There are twelve motions associated with the CAT material. The motion list is on page 4. If you are uncertain how your region approaches the CAT motions, ask your GSR to find out from the area meeting.
