Item 9a.Proposal of amendment to the Constitution
Paragraph 3c - delete in total.
Replace with - Overseas Members - those members who permanently reside outside of the United Kingdom shall be able to pay a one off payment of £75.00.
Rational - this change will remove future Life Membership from the Constitution, but still recognise those that live permanently outside the United Kingdom who have little or no opportunity to take part in Association events, but can still be members without the restrictions of annual subscriptions. It will also ease the financial burden and administration on the Association.
This Amendment is unanimously support by the Committee.
Proposed by David Addis Seconded by Colin Gent
Item 9b. Statement of Intent.
Memorial at the National Memorial Arboretum.
It has been agreed by the Committeeto pursue the possibility of raising enough funds (£3000) to have a Memorialat the National Arboretumto commemorate those members of the Regulating Branch & RN Police who have crossed the bar whilst in service.
It is hoped that this will be achieved by the joint effort of the Association, RN Police branch and an appeal to all ex Regulators for donations.
An update will be given by the Secretary and David Addis who proposed the motion at Committee level.
