National Delegate Conference 2006
top
Welcome to Conference 20-23 June 2006
 Its
June, it's the South Coast of England. It must be time for UNISON
National Delegate Conference.
The thirteenth National Delegate Conference will take
place at a time of increasing tension within Government. The last
throes of Blair, as he looks for the issue which will leave his
imprint upon history, could be a dangerous period for public services.
The modernisation drive continues on services and
pensions are well within target. Any following leadership candidates
have either been Blairites or, like Brown the architect or manager
of much of the reform.
A lot of what we expected of the third term New Labour
government was included in the Warwick Agreement … much has still
to be delivered. National Delegate Conference will consider these
issues and others of internal organisation, collective bargaining,
health and safety, equalities and international trade unionism.
Of the 147 motions and associated amendments submitted
experience suggests that around forty motions and composites will
be chosen for debate, after prioritisation by NEC, regions and equality
groups. That process has highlighted the themes in the policy guide.
With a few exceptions the agenda should provide a
broad consensus. You will find a policy summary in this booklet
and the Communications & Campaigns Committee Briefings Team will
keep you updated with daily briefings at Conference.

MONDAY 19 JUNE 2006 FROM 5.30PM - 7.30PM
