Could I bring to the council a proposal for the structuring of the House of Maesters?

I am suggesting that there are 3 divisions, Engineering, Architecture, and Diplomacy and Lore. Each division would have an Archmaester. The second of command would be the High Maester, who fills in for the Archmaester when he/she is gone, then there is the Maester. Each division can have one Archmaester, one High Maester, and at least 1 and up to 3 Maesters. In the event that there are not enough people to fill all nine places, Archmaesters can be temporary High Maesters for another division.

The Archmaesters would form a council which would only make decisions that effect only the House of Measters. This gives the house the ability to govern themselves without going through the main council and having the main council vote on something they dont need to worry about. However, if a bill is passed by the Council of Archmaesters that is not acceptable, a majority vote from the main council (excluding the Archmaesters) can overturn the decision. This is to prevent the House of Maesters from gaining more power than any other group.

Joining the House of Maesters requires a formal application for a specific division sent to the Council of Maesters. Anyone who applies is given the rank of Novice. A novice is technically part of the House, but does not receive any benefits given to full members. To become a Maester, a majority vote from the council of Maesters gains the Novice the rank of Maester.
