The Committee on Representation shall serve both as an advocate for the representation of racial ethnic members, women, different age groups, and persons with disabilities, and as a continuing resource to the particular governing body in these areas. The Committee on Representation shall review the performance of its own governing body in these matters and shall repot annually to it and to the next higher governing body with recommendations for any needed corrective action. The Committee on Representation shall consult with the nominating committee of its own governing body.
