It almost seems you need a system within the system to regulate the ethics within the system. But the fact of the matter is that it's not always wrong for people to be paid for jobs they do. It needs to be transparent, it probably needs to be fair, it needs to be open, and it needs to be in such a fashion that the majority of reasoned members would find it acceptable. And if there are excesses, then you need to deal with those.
But my sense is that when you're in the growing stage of an organization, you're going to have problems. It really is up to the membership, and I suppose to those who are in the executive, to ensure that what they do in the end meets the approval generally of the membership.
Certainly the department of immigration has an impact on the organization of it, and I suppose they have a role to play there too. But overall, it should be the membership in the organization that governs itself.
I know in other professions it's the profession that sets the rules and sets the bylaws and that governs itself. I find generally when they're working and functioning properly, they're harder on themselves than a government agency that controls them. So keep that in mind as you're working through the system, that sometimes it's a timing thing as well.
