At the Divisional Level, the number of representatives a union can bring to the monthly meeting is typically three per Association. This number is set by the existing regulations and is applicable for regular meetings at the divisional level.
Historically, there were provisions for holding a separate day for each union, but nowadays, most unions are allowed only one day for their monthly meetings. Additionally, the meeting duration is limited to two hours at the divisional level.
How Many Items Can Be Brought to the Monthly Meeting with the Administration?
There is no fixed limit on the number of items that can be discussed during the monthly meetings at the divisional level. However, it is important to note that for meetings at the bi-monthly or four-monthly level (such as with the PMG & CPMG), the number of items to be discussed is limited to four.
Therefore, while the divisional level meetings may not have a specific item limit, the practical approach is to focus on the key concerns and adhere to time constraints, with meetings typically lasting a maximum of two hours.
