Policy text
Conference notes the excellent Fire Brigades Union educational pathway that has expanded over the years, giving Officials the opportunity to learn and progress through various roles within the structures of our Union.
Conference also notes the important role that the Branch Officials Handbook plays in this process.
Conference will also recall Resolution 79 ‘Branch Officials Handbook’ moved by Durham and Darlington at Conference 2019 and passed with the support of the Executive Council (EC).
This resolution agreed that the current Branch Officials Handbook was out of date and therefore unfit for purpose and called on the EC to update or replace the present handbook, with this work to be completed by Conference 2020.
To date this work is yet to be completed.
Conference instructs the EC to provide all necessary resources, and to work with regional committees, to ensure that this work is completed no later than Conference 2024.
