NCR - #14 - (NEW) R12.5.6 YOUNG PROFESSIONALS COMMITTEE

Whereas the NCR executive has had the committee and chair for the past 2.5 years, and we spend approximately $10,000-12,500 each year on an increasing variety of youth engagement and awareness events.

Whereas there has been an increasing need to engage younger members as seen by the Young Workers Forums over the last two years and increasing events within the NCR.

Whereas the NCR Regulations did not include this committee in their Regulations.

Therefore be it resolved that the following addition to the NCR Regulations be made.
