Credentials Committee

Problem: The Bylaws stipulate the deadline for appointment of the Platform Committee and Bylaws and Rules Committee, and the members of the Credentials Committee who are appointed by the five largest affiliates, but no mention is made of the deadline for the LNC to appoint the 5 members of the Credentials Committee selected by the LNC. This is clearly an oversight.

Solution: Specify the deadline for the LNC to appoint those five members of the Credentials Committee.
