At the June 2018 meeting of the Provincial Executive, representatives passed a motion to remove the minutes of standing committees, the Executive committee, and the Provincial Executive from the website. Although AUPE is committed to transparency, having these minutes posted on the website exposed sensitive union information on a public forum, where it could be accessed by members of the public, media, and employers. This could potentially put the union at risk or undermine our ability to conduct business free from external influence.
