Regional Organising Committees
A Regional Organising Committee (ROC) is a
sub-committee of NCMA with the power to organise the Regional
Forums in its region and to promote the work of NCMA and its
members regionally.
ROCs are designed to support the aim of NCMA to widen
participation among NCMA’s members and by organising Regional
Forums to inform the work of the National Policy Forum (NPF).
ROCs have the flexibility to organise their forums in the way
that suits their region as long as they meet the principles defined
in the Standing Orders for Regional Forums. It is for the committee
to decide where the Forum is held, how it is organised and what
package of training and other activities will attract the maximum
number of delegates to the event.
Each ROC is composed of three officers; Chair, Secretary and
Treasurer; and no more than five ordinary committee members.
Between them they should represent at least three local authority
areas distributed across the geographical area of the region. All
committee members must be current members of NCMA. A nomination form for ROC
postions can be downloaded here.
ROCs were introduced in 2008 and below you can find details of
the Regional Organising Committee members in your region.
The terms of reference for
Regional Organising Committees are available to
download.
