Some decisions within QIBA are made by balloting (usually email).

The balloting process is managed by the secretariat (RSNA).

Ballots are emailed out to all members with Voting Privileges on the committee making the decision. The secretariat (RSNA) maintains rosters for each committee indicating which members currently have voting privileges.

And consider instead mailing to all "active" (attended any of the last 3 or 4 meetings) members and point to the eligibility record. Those who believe there is an error can still go ahead and vote and based on review, their ballot can be counted or discarded.

The length of the ballot period may be specified by the particular procedure that calls for a ballot. The period is generally not less than 14 days to allow for members who are away on vacation. If reviewing lengthy documents or collecting feedback within the members organization is involved 30 days is better.

The resulting tally should be included in the minutes of the next meeting of the committee making the decision. Except for elections, this should generally include the details of each ballot submitted.
