TUC LESE Advisory Sub-Groups
Trade unions nominate delegates to the Regional Council, which meets quarterly to discuss both how to achieve policy determined at the annual Trades Union Congress, and to make specific policies on regional issues.
TUC London, East and South East (LESE) has a number of Sub-Groups (to which unions and county associations of trades councils send delegates) that advise the Regional Council. Each sub-group determines its own agenda and activities.
TUC LESE Advisory Sub Groups: Constitution: HERE
Sub-Groups are:
- Construction Campaign Task Group
- Creative and Leisure Industries Committee
- Disabled Members Network
- Environmental Sustainability and Just Transition Network
- International Affairs Committee
- LGBT+ Network
- Pensioners' Network
- Public Services Committee
- Race Relations Committee
- Transport Industries Network
- Women's Rights Committee
- Young Workers' Network
Every union is entitled to nominate delegates (the exact number relates to the union's size) to these Sub-Groups.
These sub-groups are either equality or industry based and are a great opportunity for trade union officials and lay members to involve themselves in both policy and leadership positions within the TUC.
