5. Education Programme.

Bro. Nicholls reported that due to personal reasons Bro. Callow, Education Officer, had resigned.

Bro. Nicholls discussed the draft Education Programme which currently omits the Trade Union Management programme which would be included in the final draft. Sis. Woolley had previously passed this award and it was noted it was a particularly demanding course. The programme has been revised following meetings with ILM to relax criteria but not reduce standards. There would be a cost involved in attending the course, costs were previously in the region of £650-£700. A minimum of 8 delegates would be needed to run the course. Sis. Woolley gave an insight of what the course involved in further detail to EC members.

EC members discussed the lack of intake for labour movement history courses. All courses were cancelled in 2018. It was discussed that these courses should be offered again in 2019 with the possibility of a different location.

It was proposed by Bro. Nicholls to add an additional four day new reps training course to be held at Quorn, over three nights and four days during 13 th – 16 th October. This course

EC Minutes July 2018

Bro. Nicholls proposed that The Union Building Conference should be incorporated into 2019’s BGCM and other events particularly in Manchester for the celebration of the 120 th anniversary. The GFTU BGCM venue was confirmed to be taking place at Quorn May 2019.

Red Cross training was discussed and Bro. Nicholls confirmed that these courses could be run anywhere in the country to suit affiliates needs.

Mental Health and Awareness courses were discussed in detail. EC members agreed to further investigate if the Red Cross offered any first aid courses that were specifically designed for mental health. Bro. Williams agreed to investigate and report back. Sis. Miller also agreed to investigate staff care and welfare courses.

Bro. Smith reported that all Pension scheme courses were also cancelled despite being requested by affiliated unions.

EC members discussed in detail the current cancellation policy of ‘no shows’ to courses due to the costs involved to the GFTU.

EC members agreed to clarify the policy and inform the unions that they would be liable for cost and an amendment to the current course authorisation form would be required.

EC Members wished to note thanks Bro. Callow for his work involved in the Education programme.

Bro. Nicholls reported that the report should be placed on the website and made available at the 2019 BGCM.

Bro. Williams raised that no questions were asked about the GFTU and suggested an invite for them to visit. Bro. Williams suggested to gain more of a two way dialogue and to undertake more preparatory work for future international visits to continue a positive interchange.

Sis. Woolley gave a positive response to her experience of the study visit and has since received more contact with members due to visiting their home country which opens initial conversations.

Bro. Lawrence endorsed recommendations and was disappointed to not be able to meet more workers during the visit but a valuable learning experience.

Bro. Smith has an additional report from the trip to be added and asked for others to add notes for the BGCM report purposes.

Bro. Linn expressed interest in linking with OPZZ to learn more.

The recommendations were accepted.

General Secretary’s Report.

9.1 The report was adopted and the following points noted and agreed.

Bro. Nicholls discussed the overall construction budget. Costs of new hotel offices had been overlooked. Following three tenders the estimated cost of the offices would be approx. £35k. Hotel Screening costs to protect the view of guests to the hotel had increased by £1500. Asbestos left from previous builders had been found and the cost of the safe disposal would be approx. £25k. 1.3 Bro. Nicholls reported that site meetings were held regularly. The Hotel Manager holds daily site manager meetings and the Project Manager and Bro. Nicholls meet monthly. It was noted that it was a concern that the contractors had not yet signed the contract and were currently working on letters of intent. The full contract which is estimated that half a million has already been spent on ground work of which £180k GFTU had been paid. The project manager is working on getting this signed this week.

1.4 Bro. Nicholls reported that the transfer of title to Education Trust had been undertaken incorrectly. Bro. Nicholls proposed to manage this to minimise legal costs however there was a possibility this would have to be taken to court.

3.7 Bro. Nicholls reported that due to the resignation of the previous Chair, he is now the Chair of Ruskin College.

4. International

Bro. Nicholls reported that it had been confirmed that morning the Embassy of Vietnam would be visiting August 2 nd in London. Bro. Lawrence, Bro. Williams and Bro. Draper offered to assist and meet them.

Staffing

Bro. Nicholls proposed to offer extra hours to new Union Support Worker, Jayne Pacey in the interim following John Callow’ s resignation to assist with education administration.

10. Trailblazer Apprenticeship work.

Notes from the meeting 25 th June had been circulated.

Bro. Nicholls reported that the meeting group consisted of himself, Carl Parker GMB, Paul De Felice Ruskin College, Sarah Jayne McConnell TSSA, Mathew Pointon TUC, Peter NAS UWT, David Hodd POA, Deborah Lawson VOICE, Barbara Kielim Unite, Martin Roberts Prospect/BECTU and Yvonne Pattison NAPO.

Bro. Nicholls was pleased to report that the GFTU were now registered by the institute of apprenticeships and Barbara Kielim HR Manager Unite would be liasing officer. The timescale to get this up and running was by September 2019. Bro. Nicholls explained the

5

EC Minutes July 2018

benefits of apprenticeship workers within the workplace and how it is another way to attract government funding within the GFTU and within the movement.

11. Finances: to approve GFTU 2017 accounts, to note other accounts, to consider GFTU and ET management accounts, to note investment performance.

Accountant David Goodwin and Sis. Cheung, GFTU Head of Finance were in attendance and EC members were asked to formally approve GFTU accounts.

David Goodwin, Accountant, gave an overview of accounts.

Bro. Linn questioned that there was £1000k gift aided in 2016 but there had not been any amount gift aided for 2017.

David Goodwin explained that there would be tax implications if no gift aid was given. EC members briefly discussed the tax benefits of gift aid and it was suggested by David Goodwin to gift aid £35k.

EC Members agreed to gift aid £35k and for this to be backdated.

EC Members approved GFTU accounts.

Bro. Lawrence questioned if any business rate reduction had been sought due to the building work that would be taking place. Head of Finance, Wendy Cheung, confirmed that a meeting had already taken place and this had been investigated however it would not offer any financial benefit.

12 Any Other Business. 12.1 Bro Nicholls reported that letters had been received from MU, BECTU and NUJ in similar terms. The NUJ disaffiliated immediately, the MU and BECTU gave notice of no reaffiliation. All letters expressed the view that they were being provided with sufficient training via the FEU and all were concerned that the GFTU was diverting from trade union business by running commercial and hotel business. The EC was saddened to receive these letters and concerned at the complete misperception about our work which had increased trade union work and new sources of co operation and funding and found ways of creating jobs, recirculating money in the Movement and doubling our education programme and putting into place 50 plus new services.

The General Secretary was asked to strongly challenge these misperceptions and discuss issues with unions accordingly.

12.2 Bro. Nicholls reported that correspondence had been circulated regarding pledges from unions for the proposed third building. £350k had been pledged with two further unions still

6

EC Minutes July 2018

considering. If pledges were received and a quick decision made was needed EC members agreed to allow Bro. Smith, Bro. Nicholls and Bro. Williams to make decision.

12.3 Bro. Lawrence had recently visited Brussels and agreed to circulate a brief summary of this trip to hear the findings of the international tribunal on the Kurds.

The meeting closed 2.45pm

GFTU ET

REVIEW OF ACCOUNTS AS AT 31 JULY 2018

Income:

There is income due that has not yet been invoiced for customised courses held in May 2018, June and July. Invoicing has not yet taken place partly due to incomplete information and partly because the Finance Team are behind on processing due to annual leave and the recent office move. Total income from customised courses to date is £27,264. Total spent on customised courses to date is £44,486. It came to light several months ago that we had paid for the delegates travel costs without recharging them. Total amount for 2018 is £13,490. This has yet to be recharged. Although income is circa £75k behind budget for the year, any Gift Aid income will not be received until year end.

Expenses:

Overall expenses are higher than budget mainly due to the new build expenses incurred. If the New Build costs are excluded (£442k as at 31.07.18), YTD costs are over budget by circa £65k.

The main areas of overspend are:-

 Conference expenses include £24k Yarnfield weekend package  Affiliations, Donations and Subscriptions includes £6,500 for “Learning Pool” and 2 invoices at £10,000 each for Shout Out  Repairs and Maintenance includes removal and storage costs from April invoices (Nursery closure) at £5.5k  Total amount spent on Core Courses so far is £31,737

Advertising and promotion is for the Win:Win and some Education programmes.

Other event charges are for Vietnamese trip and the International Study Visit costs includes £2k for Venezuela trip and £5.7k for Poland trip.

Suspense item relates to receipt of £2,102 from University of Wolverhampton. To be investigated.

Northern College

YTD spend with Northern College as at 31.07.18 is £5,934. There are invoices for a further £12,274 in August 18 taking the total to £18,208.

Bank:

Cash flow remains tight due to New build expenses with a third client cert fee to be paid at the end of this week (14/09/18). Bank balance as at 31/07/18 is £731.00. Negative balance on balance sheet due to a number of unpresented items at month end.
