Latitude and method for negotiations Sample Clauses

Latitude and method for negotiations. Negotiations will be conducted on those person- nel policies, practices, and other matters affecting working conditions which are determined to be negotiable under Title V, and can be identified as applying to the members of the representative unit. The levels of management at which nego- tiations on specific subjects shall be conducted will be determined by the authorities delegated to that level by higher levels of management. Both Parties have the responsibility to conduct all negotiations in accordance with the intent and purpose of Title VII and applicable admin- istrative regulations. It should be understood that the obligation to bargain does not imply the obligation to reach agreement, although both Parties will make a concerted effort to this end. Each party also has the responsibility to thoroughly review the negotiation proposals of the other and, if found unacceptable, to state its reasons for rejection or to submit a counter-pro- posal. Additionally, management officials shall make themselves available at reasonable times and with reasonable promptness to negotiate the Agreement.
