Transparency is important in a membership-driven culture, which the ARRL must continue to be, and to convince our members that we are, with all actions. I believe that everyone, including members who file complaints, should be accountable for their statements in the public eye. I therefore believe that all ethics complaints, investigations and results that are not accusations of a prurient or criminal nature should be made public. Items regarding by-laws or rule violations only should specifically be published, along with findings of the E&E or full Board, or the current investigatory status if unresolved. Otherwise, our membership may continue to believe that we are not transparent and have doubts about the validity of our decisions.

We will take this one down immediately. However, the E&E Committee report has historically been posted and this one was the first in quite some time that was labeled as “Board Confidential”. As I read through it just now I realized why that was likely the case as individual names and call signs were included in reporting on various matters raised before the Committee. I would suggest, so that the appearance of transparency may continue without providing detail personal information, that names and specifics of matters adjudicated by the Committee not be reported. Rather the generic issue and possibly the relevant Division or Section only be included in the report. Specifics can be included in the Chair’s oral remarks on the report if it is removed from the Consent Agenda.
I apologize for the staff missing this one.

Looks like there has been a "stumble".
I see the E&E Committee Report, which was clearly labeled "Board Confidential", is posted for access by all !

Or, perhaps they are listed in another place.
I don't find the ARISS report, HF Band planning report, Legal Structure review report, or Legislative Advocacy committee report available to members.
They are all behind the ODV firewall, but not listed like all the others.
