AGM Season

MoD Cosford

The time schedule is tight in the run up to the PCS National and Group conferences. At the moment it is time for all the branches to hold their AGMs and ratify business that will be discussed at the conferences.

Our AGM will be held on Friday, but today Cosford held their AGM and I attended with a couple of my colleagues. The meeting rattled along quite quickly and it was the first time that we had experienced 'speed debating'. (Please read that last comment carefully...)

The guest speaker was a PCS National Officer, referred to by the Shropshire Star as 'A top union chief'. It was news to him ;-)

He was able to update the members with information on the national pay negotiations and also the latest Defence Training Review (DTR) developments.

PS: Do I need to say the AGM = Annual General Meeting?

You are going to be even busier! I don't think you need to explain AGM.

Welshcakes - Yes the busyness is building up! & it refreshing to know that no explanation on AGM is needed :-)

James - You may find it a little boring. Come out campaigning with us, you will find that much more exiting ;-)
