International Org/Dev/Coop / Emergency situations
English term or phrase: in consultation with
In Category A emergencies (see new version for emergency classification system), the National Manager and his/her management team are the appropriate authority.

In Category B emergencies, the Vice President is the maximum authority, in consultation with the Regional Advisor and affected national director(s).
---------------------

Question:

Does "in consultation with" make perfect sense in this context?

Maybe they meant in combination?

Suggestions.

Explanation:
"In consultation with" does make sense, but we don't say it literally in Spanish. It means the Vice President receives advice from other entities.

Explanation:
"Consultation" means requiring suggestions, ideas, but not binding decisions. The final decisions are to be made by the Vice President.

2. f. Estipendio o derechos del asesor.
3. f. Oficina del asesor.

asesoramiento.
1. m. Acción y efecto de asesorar o asesorarse.
