PUBLIC AFFAIRS AND INTERNATIONAL

Meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at 10am.

This Committee is concerned with all matters of current public interest, including education, housing, transport, the environment, rural issues and international friendship. It forms a liaison between NFWI and members on these matters and encourages members to take an active part and to co-operate with other bodies where appropriate. Enquiries are sent out from time to time to ascertain WI opinions and to obtain valuable information.

It shall draft any resolutions on matters of concern to this Committee which the Board of Trustees might wish to put forward for possible selection for LRFWI Annual Council Meetings or NFWI Annual Meetings. It shall be responsible for the organisation of Resolutions procedures for the Federation.

The Committee also undertakes follow-up work on Resolutions and continues to work where there is an existing mandate.
