- Decision
- Carried
Conference applauds National Women’s Committee for involving the Women’s Environmental Network at last year’s National Women’s Conference through workshops and stalls.
Grampian Health Branch delegates were greatly impressed and gravely concerned by much of the information obtained at last year’s workshop and have used it in our own branch.
Conference considers that a national campaign on the issue of possible cancer-causing additives to cleaning products, personal hygiene products and make-up is needed. Women are the main purchasers of these products for partners and family as well as themselves. Conference therefore calls on the National Women’s Committee to work with the Women’s Environmental Network to:
1)instigate a national campaign to highlight this issue;
2)develop publicity and training materials for use in branches and women’s groups.
