Woah... back up here a bit... 

I think some confusion is happening between membership of the organisation -
which will be open to anyone - and with our strategic partners - such as
GSI, or Anglicare, or whoever...

As I understand it, the clause (d) that we were discussing (for the
organisational objectives) was intended to describe our intent to work with
other organisations... this is a different objective than those relating to
membership.... 8-)
