National database of information requests

Conference notes that through the Mailgate system, the number and types of requests for information from Officials are increasing. Conference recognises that the gathering and sharing of this information is a very useful tool for Officials throughout UK FRSs. However Conference is also aware that because of the rotational nature of Officials within Brigade, Sectional and Regional positions the same or similar questions/requests are getting asked repeatedly. Therefore Conference instructs the Executive Council to produce a secure database system for all information requests by Officials. In doing this the information requested can be stored securely and used by Officials, thus allowing a more consistent approach by all Officials. An update on the progress of this work will be given at the next Conference by the Executive Council.
