> I am beginning to think that a way out of this - though it is not backed up

>
> 1. One has to have been a resident/ citizen for x number of years - in our
> case a member of the list for x number of months/ years. That should take
> care of concerns around "capture".
> 2. One has to have to have been in the country/ city for the past x period
> of time - in our case have been seen to be active and participating at least
> once in the past x period of time. That should take care of concerns around
> representativeness/ transparency etc
> 3. Possibly a participation threshold of at least x number of contributions
> a year since becoming a member, having already met the requirements of
> points 1 and 2 above.
