Preamble
Two of the Twelve Concepts for World Service (short form)
Declaration of Unity
This we owe to AA’s future: to place our common welfare first; to keep our fellowship united. For on AA unity depend our lives and the lives of those to come.
Housekeeping: please put your hand up and not speak unless invited by the Chair.
2. Introductions
Apologies
Welcome new Regional Reps and confirm vacancies
3. Confirm quoracy for the meeting
4. Reports from Conference Delegates
5. Conference cycle and rotation of Conference Delegates/Alternates
Should this guidance be included in the SER Aims and Structure document?
The conference work for both full Delegates and Alternates is seasonal, starting in December when the questions are published, and runs through until the end of May/June after Conference, where an intergroup may want to have a post conference report discussion session. June – December there is no work unless you are a Committee Chair,
but you still attend South East Region meetings.
Therefore, it would be preferable if new full Delegates or Alternates are in position for December, so they can be in the loop from the start of the next conference cycle (when the questions are published).
Lunch break: approx. 12:00 to 12:30
