Our management committee

The management committee is responsible for overseeing our strategy. It currently meets four times a year and has established a number of sub-committees.

The management committee is elected through a ballot of ALDC members every two years, with elections taking place in the autumn of even numbered years. Members can be re-elected, but are only able to hold a specific officer position for two consecutive terms.
