National Retained Committee: What do we do?

The National Retained Committee advises the Executive Council on matters affecting the conditions of Employment of retained members of the Union and the related negotiations. We advise the Executive Council on the organisation and recruitment of retained members into the Union.

The NRC comprises one retained member from each Region, a Chair and a Secretary. The member from each Region is elected by the retained members in the Region. The National Chair and Secretary are elected by retained members. Subject to the approval of the Executive Council, the NRC can elect members to serve in an advisory capacity to the Executive Council upon the national negotiating bodies concerned with retained conditions of employment.

In conjunction with the Executive Council the National Retained Committee organises an annual general meeting of representatives of retained members
