Conscience Questions
There was only the one Conscience Questions.
This was the following proposal from Shirley S.
??Do GSRs think they might find it helpful for Intergroup to hold a Conference Questions Workshop led by Delegates. The aim of the workshop would be to assist GSRs to gain a clear understanding of the Questions, prior to their having to facilitate their own group discussions??
This was seconded by Lynden S.
A vote was taken with a unanimous vote in favour of the proposal. The Workshop is scheduled to take place on Friday 15th January 2021. Full details
Telephone Liaison Officer's Proposals

There was a unanimous vote in favour of this proposal.
The 2nd proposal was not dealt with as a number of the Assembly wanted more time than was currently available on the Agenda. This 2nd proposal will go over to the 8th January 2021, along with any points that members submit so that they can be circulated prior to the Assembly.
