Branch Mandating Meeting 2009

For PCS National and DWP Group Conference


Wednesday 13th May 2009
Warbreck House Canteen
2.00pm - 3.30pm

The purpose of this post is to remind members of a General Meeting to mandate (i.e. instruct) delegates to the forthcoming PCS National and DWP Group Conferences.

Obviously as the manner in which delegates vote can influence PCS policy on a range of issues from Pay Bargaining to the way the union is run, this is an important meeting. The motions booklets will be available at the Mandating Meeting, however, if you require an advance copy please contact the Branch Secretary, Duncan Griffiths by email or by phone on Ext: 63484.

The agenda for the meeting is:

1) Apologies
2) Announcements
3) Emergency Motions
4) Mandating of delegates to the PCS National and DWP Group Conferences.

1½ hours facility time, plus reasonable travelling time, has been applied for you to attend the meeting. Please make every effort to do so.

If you require any further details please do not hesitate to contact the Branch Secretary, please also contact him if you require a hard copy of the DWP Group or PCS National Conference Motions booklets.

The National Motions book can be found here in .pdf format, the Group Motions booklet is not yet available electronically due to the slightly different nominations and motions timescale of National Conference. We will publish it once it is.
