Liberty’s Policy Council meets three times per year and is responsible for policy-setting between Annual General Meetings.
The Council is made up of 30 Liberty members. Each year, 15 members are elected to serve for two years. New Council members take office immediately following the AGM.
From its members, the Council elects an Executive Committee, which meets at least eight times a year. It is responsible for the strategic direction, financial and other governance of Liberty. In addition, the Executive Committee appoints a Treasurer each year at their first meeting following Liberty’s Annual General Meeting.
Members may submit motions for debate or constitutional amendment at the Members’ Conference & AGM.
Please download this form and return by 5.00pm, Thursday 7 March 2019 to submit motions and constituional amendments for debate at the 2019 Liberty AGM.
Liberty works closely with the Civil Liberties Trust (CLT), a registered charity. The CLT has no staff, but commissions Liberty to conduct charitable work such as providing public advice and information.
It is important that the CLT exists as the division between the two organisations enables us to pursue all the work necessary to protect and promote civil liberties and human rights, including, crucially, our political campaigning.
