JLP general secretary Dr Horace Chang says the party welcomes the willingness of supporters to engage in a positive and meaningful process of dispute resolution.
Efforts to contact Smith for a reaction have been unsuccessful.
Smith won the seat in a by-election in 2020 after the death of Shahine Robinson.
She is now also the minister of state in the Ministry of Finance and the Public Service.
