Conference
2012 Police & Justice Conference
Date
13 June 2012
Decision
Carried as Amended

This conference notes the importance of maintaining contact with like minded trade unions outside of the UK. As the government seeks to utilise policing models from other cultures such as Police and Crime Commissioners, it is important to gain learning from international trade unionists who share our values and have experience in organising within these models.

With the aim of achieving greater understanding, solidarity and support, conference instructs the SGE to:

1)Identify non UK trade unions that share our objectives and work in the field of policing.

2)Seek advice from the International committee on how best to approach none UK trade unions with a view to building relationships and sharing ideas and experience.
