Matters arising

Had Scottish election campaign meeting and there were some useful outcomes.

Electoral commission forms

Confirmation party registration renewal sent and received by Electoral Commision

The RP8 form has been sent with the fee of £25, recorded delivery. It has a deadline of 30th October. Copy of the form was sent to the mailing list a while ago. Peter Liddell will phone the Electoral Commission and confirm that the form has been correctly processed and email the mailing list once this is done.

Forms for change of officers Loz Kaye and Peter Brett

Peter Liddell has confirmed that he has received Peter Brett’s form. Action: Miah Gregory will contact Peter Liddell to let him know what needs to be done with the forms.

PPI conference

PPI contacted Loz Kaye about us organising and hosting conference in quarter 1 or quarter 2 next year. Due to the timing of our own conference next year and elections, Loz Kaye will reply to them to indicate our interest in attending the PPI conference but that we are not in a position to organise/host it at this time.

Council 2011 candidates

The master plan for Scotland 2011 is looking promising. The question is whether we want to have the same time frame for finding candidates for council elections 2011. RAO’s need to organise this themselves due to the short time scales involved and the necessary local access to councils to get hold of the information. We should remind the RAO’s around Christmas that this needs to be organised, giving them plenty of time.

Forum admin / London RAO / Size of web team

Short discussion about this. The NEC is very concerned about the size of the web/admin team.

Bank accounts

Problems with changing details on co-op account. All NEC members present agreed that we should proceed directly to closing the account. Action: Miah Gregory will ask Andrew Robinson to begin this process.

Transfer of paypal money to new bank account has been initiated. Action: Peter Liddell will email the mailing list once this has been completed.

Change of paypal account details across to Peter Liddell. Action: Peter Liddell will update the paypal account details once the transfer has been completed.

Reminder that questions about stuff should be emailed as and when they come up to the mailing list, or individuals as appropriate, rather than leaving them all to the NEC meeting for discussion.

Timing of NEC meetings

Suggestion that we move the meeting to a time more convenient to Peter Liddell so that he can attend more easily. Action: Peter Brett will email the mailing list to discuss and organise this
