We have been conducting a review of the External Affairs Working Party to gauge its effectiveness to members. While the feedback has been positive overall, its name has been the source of some confusion. Therefore, we intend to change the name to the Government Affairs Working Party.
Some members have also stated that they believed the group was exclusive and therefore were not permitted to join. For the avoidance of doubt, ALL of our working parties are open to all members who wish to participate.
We will continue to collate responses and will make further changes based on member feedback ahead of its relaunch in January 2025. You can still provide anonymous feedback about the External Affairs Working Party here.
Please email ben.kemp@bivda.org.uk if you would like to be put on the mailing list for future Government Affairs Working Party communications. If you already receive External Affairs Working Party communications, you do not have to do this.
