Conference Guide
Autumn Conference 2012 Brecon 13 October 2012 Welcome Dear friends, It’s a great pleasure to welcome you to my home town of Brecon for the 2012 Welsh Liberal Democrat Autumn Conference. It’s been quite a challenging year for us as a party but this conference is going to be an opportunity for members to come together, discuss, debate and offer radical policies that will provide a strong platform for the Assembly elections in 2016. As you flick through this guide, you will see that the format of the Autumn Conference has changed. The weekend has been designed to ensure that members, the people who make this party what it is, have even more opportunities to question, to learn and to formulate party policy. There will also be an opportunity for members to look back at the local election campaign, learn lessons and develop new campaigning skills that will put us in good stead to take on the challenges ahead. And as ever, this will be an opportunity to catch up with old friends and form new bonds with Welsh Liberal Democrats from all across Wales. Have a great conference, Kirsty Williams AM Leader, Welsh Liberal Democrats Autumn Conference 2012 2 Brecon Contents Conference Timetable 4 Information Conference Venue 8 Travel 9 Security 10 Registration 12 Information about the Motions 14 Speaking at Conference 17 Order of Debate & Voting 19 Procedural Motions 20 Party Business 21 Policy 27 Campaigning 33 Evening Events 35 Standing Orders 36 Autumn Conference 2012 Brecon 3 Conference Timetable The 2012 Autumn Conference will take a different format to past Conferences.
