Motions & Letters

Here you can see some motions which have been passed at recent conferences, can you enact similar or better in your union?

We have also made available a range of downloadable model motions for suitable editing to fit your circumstances.

These fall into three categories.

. Motions for National Conferences, these can be taken to branches and approved for submission to your Union’s Annual conference.

. Motions for Branches, take to your branch for adoption, and subsequent forwarding to the Executive of your Union.

. Motions for Congress, these can be taken to branches for approval and progressed through your Union for submission to the STUC Congress.

No Trade Union conference should be taking place without genocide on the agenda – it’s up to us to ensure we never stop talking about the crimes of Zionism.

Also uploaded is a model workplace ‘Pension Divestment Request Letter’, this should be edited with your details and sent to your pension scheme Trustee/investment manager as appropriate.
