Motion 1 (wording to go to Council)

[Ianbrownlee]

Copied below this was the actual wording of the FIDE Guidelines. These are not as far as I am aware negotiable/alterable by Chess Scotland

as far as the fide-rated events go I believe these are ratified guidelines ? as I've said before what happens when the guidelines are attempted to be followed but fail in their implementation ? what penalty is followed in for example in a fide rated spens cup. Does the game not get fide rated, the match or the whole tournament or does anything happen at all ? I wouldn't be happy if my game wasn't fide rated playing for Team A if an infraction happened in a match between team B and Team C ( a disabled player in team B is unable to play in an unsuitable venue provided by team C). Can any other penalty be implemented. If nothing at all haven't we all been unnecessarily spending a lot of energy on this?

I'm only asking the question because I really don't know

I've given a possible scenario elsewhere on this thread. I really would like to hear other opinions on this. Perhaps C+S
would have to provide a central venue for these games
