Year: 2023 (Executive Council Policy Statement)
Nominating section: National retained committee
Policy text
Conference notes that resolution ‘Underpayment of Continual Professional Development (CPD) Payments to Members’ from Conference 2022 instructed the Executive Council (EC) to support brigade Officials in mounting an immediate challenge to the detrimental practice of underpaying our retained Members’ CPD.
Conference notes that little progress has been made on this matter.
Conference demands that the EC conduct a survey of all fire and rescue services to establish current levels and methods of payments. This survey is to be completed within six months. On completion the EC will launch a campaign to work with affected brigade Officials in providing them with the necessary resources to take their fire and rescue services to task and resolve this situation.
