Resolutions and Amendments

How to Submit Resolutions

Resolutions must be received no later than10 days before Convention (Wednesday, October 25).
For details on how to submit resolutions, and who can do so, see Article 8, Section 4 of the current NL NDP Constitution.
Submit Resolutions to info@nl.ndp.ca with the subject line "Resolutions".
When preparing your resolution, some rules to keep in mind:
- Keep the “Whereas Clause” to around 50 words (whereas clauses simply set up a rationale for asking Convention to adopt a particular policy – it is not the policy itself”)
- The “Be it Resolved” section should be as concise as possible – aim for under 100 words
Resolutions are intended to:
- Provide input into a current or new policy
- Ask the Party to take a specific action (i.e., develop a policy, run a campaign, etc.)
- Have the Party make a statement on an ongoing issue, event, etc.
Any questions on resolutions, contact info@nl.ndp.ca

Proposed amendments must be received no later than 30 days before Convention. That deadline has now passed.
Amendments proposed by the NL NDP Executive are now available to the membership at Delegate Documents.
