<p><p>Can I ask what process is adopted by these &quot;industry associations&quot; in determining their &quot;views?&quot;.</p>
<p>Do they survey their members? Do they open these topics up for discussion at forums? Or do they simply apply their own personal opinions?</p>
<p>If I'm being represented by a so called &quot;industry association&quot;, I'd like to think that my personal views would be taken into consideration when the &quot;industry association&quot; arrives at a position.</p>
<p>Or am I just be too naive?</p>
<p>Whose opinion should an industry association represent? The boards' or the members?</p></p><p><a href="">Reply to article</a></p><p>For original story, <a href="">Click Here.</a></p>
