National Committee

The current National Committee was elected at the NCAFC National Conference on December 8th and 9th 2012. It has responsibility for what the NCAFC does in between conferences. The Campaign also has a Secretariat, responsible for co-ordinating the democratic procedures of the Campaign.

The committee comprises:

  • 14 members elected by single-transferable vote at national conference, of which at least 40% must be self-defining women.
  • 1 delegate from each regional conference (as defined by regions), whose vote can be shared between multiple representatives
  • 1 delegate from each liberation campaign (LGBTQ, Women, Disabled and Black Power), whose vote can be shared between multiple representatives
  • 1 delegate from any other self-organised student section as recognised by the national committee. At present, only the International section exists.

Meetings of the NC are open to anti-cuts activists but only members of the NC have voting rights. National Conferences are open to all and everyone has equal voting rights.
