# 11. Remove Local Experts

## How to remove Local Experts

To revoke a Local Expert's status, a proposal must be created outlining the reasons for removal. The community then votes on this proposal.

If the proposal passes, the tokens delegated to the Local Expert from the DAO's treasury are automatically returned. However, the Local Expert can still vote on their removal using their own tokens or tokens delegated from individual members' balances, not the DAO treasury tokens.

Removing Local Experts follows a transparent process, ensuring experts remain accountable and aligned with the DAO's goals. It upholds decentralization and community governance principles within the DAO ecosystem.
