I invite @BACP to share the Governance process of Motions & Resolutions - what the vetting process & criteria is for a Motion or Resolution to make it eligible for voting on - so how Board made decisions. This transparency would support understanding of why some are/not included.
It's important for all members to know that Motions/Resolutions have to comply with Governance/Charity regulation to be eligible, rather than @BACP Board subjectivity. However separate to that are the @BACP responses, which is a reflection of the Board/organisational position.
It's important to understand that a Motion/Resolution being eligible for voting on, doesn't automatically mean that the org/Board is supportive of it. That's where their response comes in - and how we understand IF they are supportive of it or not. It's why our Votes Matter!
Its important we campaign and vote for the Motions/Resolutions we want implemented! #changes #socialjustice
Let's not get 2 connected issues mixed up
1)Motions/Resolutions are eligible due to Governance process, irrespective of Board/org agreement. So Motions/Resolutions not always a reflection of organisation's own agenda.
2)The organisation's own position/agenda - see their responses
Please see the @BACP statement published yesterday in regards to the vetting/selection process of Motions and Resolutions:
