Our Management Committee

The business of the Group is normally conducted through quarterly meetings of the management committee. The committee consists of elected trustees and an advisory group made up of representatives from our affiliated groups together with individual CBAY members who have volunteered to carry out particular tasks (e.g. digital officer).

Matters concerning the running of the Group and its activities are proposed and debated at these meetings, and all opinions considered, but only the trustees can pass binding resolutions.
