Resolutions Committee

Must be serving as a councillor to be appointed.

The Federation is requesting expressions of interest from councillors who would like to serve on the Resolutions Committee. The Committee serves as a significant support to the governance of the Federation by adjudicating each resolution and notice of motion that is submitted for consideration.

This Committee meets two to three times a year (initially in February) and consists of current councillors and is supported by Federation staff. Potential candidates must be councillors of the Federation (elected by their local associations). Experience with writing and submitting resolutions will be considered an asset but is not required.

2. To treat as confidential the deliberations of the Resolutions Committee regarding the adjudication of resolutions.
