Conference

2005 Retired Members' Conference

Date

15 June 2005

Decision

Carried as Amended

Conference calls on the National Retired Members’ Committee and the National Executive Council to closely monitor and make suitable representations to government with regard to the present ongoing revaluation of homes – which will inevitably result in changes to the banding levels with a detrimental effect on the elderly who are on a fixed income and in a property which has been the family home for many years.

It is essential that action is taken at all levels to ensure that allowances to elderly persons are adjusted in both sufficient time and amount to ensure that their standard of living is not compromised in any way by this revaluation.
