Member

There have been no instances of members choosing not to maintain their political fund through this 10-year reballoting arrangement. Unions have their own internal democratic structures that members can use if they oppose the existence of their union’s political fund, so we feel that these amendments are unnecessary. Requiring a majority of all members in the union to vote in favour of that political resolution goes beyond the current conditions for passing a political resolution and would be an unreasonable requirement to impose on unions.
