Brighton NUJ Meeting Minutes – 26th March 2008
For those of you who didn’t brave the rain for the meeting, and stayed in to watch the England Match, this is what you missed:
1. A vote was passed to pass membership applications for Nicola Kim Davies and John Senior, and welcome them into the NUJ.
2. Meeting venues were discussed, and the Cornerstone near Palmeira Square was considered as a possible venue, as was the Nelson pub. Any ideas are welcome.
3. Possible subjects to bring up at the ADM were discussed, and it was agreed that a potential agreement of ‘NUJ photographers not writing, and NUJ writers not photographing’ would be raised if possible.
4. Pay issues at the Argus were discussed, with regards to the recent 3% pay offer. Argus rep Tim feels the offer should be inline with inflation at 4.1%, but isn’t sure how effective it would be for the NUJ to push for a higher offer in this instance.
5. Maria Macarthy, non-fiction writer, was discussed as a possible speaker for a future meeting, and it was agreed she should be contacted.
