Heads up for
Roving Traders – Changes to CRT representation.
Following the
September 2019 CRT National Council meeting it has been decided that the Roving
Trader license holders will be included within the Private Boating constituency
for the forthcoming National Council elections, which will take place between
20th Jan and 14th Feb 2020, rather than within the Business
Boating constituency as previously.
The reasoning
behind this change is that from a day to day perspective, the needs of the
Roving Traders are considered to be more closely aligned to Private Boaters
than those businesses engaged in boat building, boat hire, commercial trip
boats and mooring providers. These larger boating businesses will continue to
elect two representatives to the National Council.
It has been a
privilege to serve as an elected member on CRT’s National Council for the last
four years, formally representing all aspects of Business Boating, but in
reality offering an informed contribution from the perspective of both Roving
Traders and Private Boating, alongside the other the Council members with
boating interests.
The formal
process for electing representatives to CRT’s National Council will start on 21st
October 2019 with a communication to all qualifying license holders inviting
applications.
Whilst this is
still a few weeks away I would like you to know that I plan to seek re-election
for a further period of four years, this time within the Private Boating
constituency.
More details to
follow.
Please feel
free to share this among the various Roving Trader on line groups.
