The ABC’s exact motion was: To create an ad-hoc committee that will study Concepts 2 and 6 and report to the 2023 ABC on possible revisions. Delegates and the fellowship will be notified of the study and invited to join the ad-hoc committee.\u003Cbr>● An extension of time was approved in 2023.\u003Cbr>● The following passed at the 2024 ABC:\u003Cbr>We propose a 2-3 year extension of the time, and an expansion of its scope, of the Concepts Study Group: see *\u003Cbr>▪ to refine recommended language for an update to Concept VI to be presented at the next business meeting of the Conference\u003Cbr>▪ to Include considering updates to other Concepts, and to make recommendations to better integrate the Concepts into the World Service Conference and the World Service Organization.\u003Cbr>*Following an extension of scope, the committee was renamed The Concepts Study Ad-hoc Committee with Board approval. |\n\n\n| Bullet list of committee activities since the last ABC |\n| --- |\n| ●  At the 2025 ABC: Conference approved the proposed new Concept 2 language“ACA groups delegate to the World Service Conference the authority to act as their effective voice and conscience, and to represent the fellowship in world service matters.”\u003Cbr>- This motion passed, including Minority Opinion\u003Cbr>●  In between the 2025 ABC and the September 2025 CBM: Given the new process for Fellowship Group Voting (which did not exist when the 2024 Concept 2 motion was passed at the 2025 ABC) , the committee felt it was our responsibility to present the option to bring to the Conference as to whether at the 2025 ABC the decision the new Concept 2 language should go to Fellowship Group Voting for final approval by the worldwide Fellowship\u003Cbr>●  At the 2025 September CBM: The primary focus of the committee's presentation atthe September CBM was to fully determine through a Conference motion whether |\n\nACA WSO Annual Business Conference 2025-26  \nConcept 2 shall go through the FGV process for final approval, or whether the decision which already took place and was approved at the 2025 ABC to approve the revised Concept 2 stands as final.  \n- Because Concept 2 is the Concept which formally specifies that the Conference is the representative voice of the Fellowship, and because FGV process did not exist until Dec 2024, the primary focus of the committee 's presentation at the September CBM was to fully determine through a Conference motion whether Concept 2 shall go through the FGV process for final approval, or whether the decision which already took place and was approved at the 2025 ABC to approve the revised Concept 2 stands as final.  \n Motion at Sept. 2025 CBM : The Concepts Study Group hereby MOVES that  \nthe version of Concept 2 approved at the 2025 ABC be placed into a Fellowship Group Vote process, so as to allow it to be approved and confirmed by the whole Fellowship, with the explicit understanding that a Conference decision not to initiate a Fellowship Group Vote here today will serve as a decision that the revised Concept 2 language already approved by the Conference at the 2025 ABC is final  \nMotion passes with 79.31% of the votes which meets the requirement  \nJan 2026 CBM  \n-minority opinion did not change the motion approval  \nPlease Keep In Mind:  \n○ The larger issue of whether changes to any Concepts would need approval by the worldwide Fellowship remains unaddressed at this point in time.
