As an Ambassador for the Ethics in Sport, nominated by the Portuguese government, my main goal is to create an Ethical Code for all who are involved in our sport. It is also absolutely necessary to have an independent Disciplinary Committee and we must clarify the role of MNAs in the presence of international promoters, so that ISAF Events can't be appointed without prior confirmation from the MNA. Council's role must definitely be much different. The committees must be reduced to the minimum necessary, in order to make ISAF's technical decisions more effective and more responsible. The role of International Classes must be orientated to strengthen our sport and not to support lobbyist influence. The structures of our sport have been supported mainly on volunteers. In these increasing demanding times, we must protect and incorporate this valuable asset, in a strong and professional ISAF. |
