Event Details

The Wandsworth Lib Dem 2024 AGM will provide the annual occasion for members to participate in the running of the Local Party’s affairs.

 WHAT HAPPENS?

Officers in the local party will report to the membership on how the last year has gone, and the prospects: members will ask questions: certain decisions relating to the conduct of our finances will be considered; and elections for the 2025 Executive will be held. In addition, a guest speaker will  provide a broader perspective on our Lib Dem Affairs.

THE AGENDA

The agenda is here. In summary:

  • The meeting will receive reports from the Chair, the Treasurer, our three constituencies of Battersea, Putney and Tooting, and our candidate for the 2024 London Assembly election.  
  • The financial information for Agenda item 3 – the Treasurer’s report – will be posted a few days before the AGM takes place.
  • We will hold a consultation on voting procedure for contested places on the Executive
  • The returning officer will supervise the elections, subject to the need for a ballot of all our members if a position or positions on the 2025 Executive is contested.
  • To close, Lib Dem MP Olly Glover will address the meeting, with an opportunity for questions

All Members are cordially invited and encouraged to come. This is your opportunity to learn what is going on in the local party, to hear about a national Lib Dem perspective, to ask questions and to hold the Executive to account.

THE ELECTION OF THE 2025 EXECUTIVE

The Executive encourages nominations for membership of the new Executive in 2025. We would like the Executive to be as representative as possible of the local community we serve. For more information about standing for the Executive contact the Returning Officer Matthew Bryant at 49 Goodman Crescent, SW2 4NR or email matthew.bryant05@btinternet.com.  Nomination forms can be obtained from Matthew or by downloading a copy. Nominations will close at the AGM, shortly before the election procedure under agenda item 7. 

Applications from women and from minorities who might be underrepresented are particularly welcome. If more than one applicant applies for a particular position, the applicants will be given an opportunity for all but one to withdraw, before the contest proceeds to a vote of all the membership. You can read the rules for the conduct of any competitive elections, also available as a Word documenthere.
