The resolution process is an important one for
NCWC. There are dates to be aware of for submission, which are noted
in the calendar.
Generally, in early January, the package of resolutions is mailed
to all Local and Provincial Councils and National Affiliates. Proposed
amendments are then submitted to the Resolutions Convener in preparation
for the AGM, held in early June. All members of Council have an
opportunity to propose, review, amend and vote on resolutions.
Here are some of the basic concepts on resolutions, policy and briefs:
Resolution: A resolution is proposed policy, proposed by
a local or provincial Council or a Nationally Organized Society, which
is presented at the AGM for debate and a vote.
Policy: A policy is a resolution that is passed at the AGM.
Brief: A brief is a paper submitted to government or an official
body, which states our policy and suggests a course of action.
