Provincial Executive Meeting
Oct 24, 2007
The Provincial Executive meeting was held on Wednesday, October
24, 2007 at the Coast Terrace Inn, Edmonton, Alberta followed by
Convention concluding on Saturday, October 27, 2007 at which time
PE adjourned.
The Legislative Committee brought forward Resolutions from the
Membership Services Committee for the Provincial Executive to determine
whether they should proceed to Convention 2007. The Committee did
not follow a Motion passed at a March 2000 PE meeting and further
reiterated in a letter of February 09, 2007 requesting that all
Resolutions must be accompanied by the Minutes of the component
meeting where the resolution was approved. The Provincial Executive
by roll call vote elected to forward these resolutions to Convention.
As well, Resolutions from the Human Rights Committee were put before
the Provincial Executive to determine whether they should proceed
to Convention. These Resolutions were not received by the due date
in the President’s Office as per Article 6.13 of he Constitution.
The Provincial Executive by roll call vote elected to not forward
these Resolutions to Convention.
The following Policies were amended:
1. Policy 3-3 Policy on Grievance Handling for Union Stewards and
Union Representatives and Membership Services Officers (MSO);
2. Policy 3-7 Recruitment of Union Stewards;
3. Policy 3-10 Policy on Union Steward Training.
The Pay Equity Committee wished to have a Resolution submitted
as an emergent Resolution dealing with social justice issues. The
Provincial Executive defeated this request as it was not deemed
of an urgent nature and recommended the new Pay Equity Committee
forward this matter to them in the future.
The Provincial Executive did not reconvene through Convention and
adjourned at 3:30 P.M. on Saturday, October 27, 2007
The next meeting is scheduled for December 1st, 2007, Edmonton,
