What do we want ?
A permanent and independent Pilots Union Safety Committee that has the power to intervene on all CIVL decisions that directly affect pilot safety in competitions.
How do we achieve that ?
Determine the size, number and qualifications of the committee required. Pilots union members vote for its membership.
Table a motion at the CIVL plenary for the adoption of an independent Safety Committee.

It's interesting. I never thought it could go this far. CIVL appointed a safety Officier recently.
There is a project a reviewing CIVL Internal regulations, maybe it will be the correct opportunity to discuss this topic more.
Wont we need CIVL to approve such a proposal? Are we asking for an independent body because there is a lack of confidence in CIVL? Can we not imbed the function you seek within a body (CIVL) that meets our needs?
Perhaps the creation of a Independent Pilots Union Safety Committee should not just be limited to CIVL, but to all Comps.
This ties in as a possible solution for the What Went Wrong Topic: Communication of safety incidents.

An Independent Pilots Union Safety Committee could provide most if not all the solutions proposed: the independent Investigation, Public disclosure/ transparency, Monitoring of Pilots condition if applicable etc.. and possibly at some time in the future even be the independent and impartial safety director that could end the task or race due to safety concerns.
