Policy Committee
What is the Policy Committee?
The Policy Committee is made of the spokesperson and movement builder for each of our seven policy goals and the party in Scotland. It is chaired by the leader of the party, Mandu Reid.
The Committee helps us communicate our fantastic policies far and wide, growing our movement and representing us as spokespeople at events and in the media.

About the Policy Committee
How were the Policy Committee members chosen?
Policy Committee members have been elected by Party members.
What do Policy Committee members do?
Individually, the spokespeople participate in public debates on their area on behalf of the Party, in consultation with the Party Leader or Chief of Staff. The movement builders reach out to organisations and individuals to build relationships with people relevant to their policy area. They are also required to monitor developments in their policy areas and update the Leader and other spokespeople on developments, as well as build alliances with organisations that share the Party’s objectives.
Can members put forward motions to update policies?
Motions to change, update or add to our policies can be put forward by members, branches, the Party Leader and the Policy Committee, in accordance with the Party’s Constitution. Collectively, the Policy Committee reviews all policy motions to check their coherence and consistency with our mission and objectives, before they are put forward to Party Conference.
