The deadline for receipt is 12 noon on Friday 18 November 2016.

Delegation

As decided by the NEC last year, due to budgetary constraints, Napo would only send its entitled two speaking delegates to each of the Equalities Conferences, one of which might be a National Officer/Official and to not send further visitors. The Officers’ Group are proposing the same for this year.

In this case, if more than 2 nominations are received for the above Equalities Conferences the NEC will decide on the delegation members at its meeting on 29th November 2016.

Napo will meet the travel expenses of those on the delegation and provide hotel accommodation and a subsistence allowance during the Conference.  The Conference provides crèche facilities and also facilities for disabled people.

Branches are asked to submit the names of their nominees on the below nomination forms.

BR 58/2016 for the Women’s TUC

BR 59/2016 for the Black Workers’ TUC

Please note that the nomination form must be countersigned by a branch officer before being returned, together with the monitoring form, to reach Napo office by 12 noon on Friday 18 November.
