F-11 Resolution Making

Sponsor: Katie Oppen | Disposition:  Defeated

Whereas the development, discussion and adoption of resolutions are integral to the ongoing evolution and improvement of an organization; and

Whereas well written, thoughtful and strategic resolutions can trigger debate, engage members and stimulate positive changes in an organization; and

Whereas PIPSC constituent bodies such as Branches, Groups, and Regional Councils do not take full advantage of the opportunity to bring resolutions to their annual general meetings, to Regional Councils, or to the PIPSC National Annual General Meeting;

Be it resolved that PIPSC undertake to provide training to constituent bodies on how to prepare and present resolutions; and

Be it further resolved that PIPSC actively encourage the development of thoughtful, relevant resolutions by constituent bodies at all levels. 

Resolutions Sub-Committee Comments:  The pocketbook “How to Write a Resolution” is available to all members via the PIPSC Web site and training is already being provided to constituent bodies upon request.
