Annual Conference and National Elections
It’s that time again where, as a District your voice needs to be heard to vote on which motions are prioritised for conference and, who should receive the districts’ nomination for Executive roles.
Motion Prioritisation
How to choose and submit priority motions
Each district secretary will be emailed a full list of motions by 7 January 2025. The list will also be available on the Officers’ SharePoint
Each district can nominate up to six priority motions, regardless of the section in which they are placed
Motions must be chosen at a quorate district meeting
The closing date for you to record your district’s votes is 17 February 2025
Sector and equality conference motions
Sector and equality conference motions are always heard at conference
These motions are automatically prioritised which is why they haven’t been given motion numbers yet
The LGBT+ conference does not meet to choose its motion until 22 February which is why its motion is not included
The full list of motions is included in the Action Network Email - this is due to not being able to post the motions publicly.
Executive Nomination
The following members have made themselves known to Trafford District. We will be discussing and voting on who receives nominations at the Trafford OGM [Event details] - District Committee will be making a decision on holding hustings at the next DCM.
