Conference of Representatives of Local Medical Committees 2006

May 2006

The agenda for the Local Medical Committee (LMC) conference 2006, to be held on Thursday 15 and Friday 16 June in London, is now available. A hard copy of this agenda will be sent to representatives, LMCs, members of General Practitioners Committee (GPC) and observers.

Under standing order 18, in this agenda are printed all notices of motions for the annual conference received up to noon on 18 April 2006. Although 18 April 2006 was the last date for receipt of motions, any local medical committee, or member of the conference, has the right to propose an amendment to a motion appearing in this agenda, and such amendments should be sent to the secretary prior to the conference, or handed in, in writing, at as early a stage of the conference as possible.

The agenda committee has acted in accordance with standing order 20 to prepare the agenda in two parts. The first part “Part 1” being those motions which the agenda committee believe should be debated within the time available. The second part “Part 2” being those motions covered by 26 and 27 and those motions submitted for which the agenda committee believe there will be insufficient time for debate or are incompetent by virtue of structure or wording. If any local medical committee submitting a motion included in Part 2 of the agenda objects in writing before the first day of the conference the transfer of the motion to Part 1 of the agenda shall be decided by the conference during the debate on the report of the agenda committee.

Under standing order 22, the agenda committee has grouped motions or amendments which cover substantially the same ground, and has selected and marked with an asterisk * one motion or amendment in each group on which it is proposed that discussion should take place.

Membership of the conference agenda committee is as follows:

J T Canning (Chairman of Conference)
F Wilson (Deputy Chairman of Conference)
H Meldrum (Chairman of GPC)

J Alcock (Fife)
D A Baker (Lincolnshire)
G S Beck (Buckinghamshire)
