The Board have been conducting a review of the IOR Constitution and were considering putting this to members at this year’s AGM, however it has now been decided to hold a wider consultation on the proposed changes.

Members can review and consider current proposals and make any suggestions having reviewed the documents here https://ior.org.uk/public/downloads/RrVEE/2024_IORconstitutionconsultation.pdf . Please email any comments to iorboard@ior.org.uk.
