and calls for truth and justice for the families of the victims of the Loughinisland massacre of 18 June 1994: Patsy O’Hare, Barney Green, Adrian Rogan, Eamon Byrne, Daniel McCreanor and Malcom Jenkinson. (Belfast and District)
(7) Student Recruitment: This Biennial Delegate Conference calls on the incoming IEC to instigate a focused, strategic campaign in third-level journalism courses to promote the benefits of union membership and to seek assistance from the NEC to help provide resources for this as part of a long-term strategy to recruit new members and future proof the NUJ in Ireland. (West of Ireland)
(8) Conflict and Trauma Training: This Biennial Delegate Conference calls for the organisation of expert training for NUJ members in Ireland around personal safety in conflict zones, public order situations and other scenarios where they might be at risk, and specialist support for those who have experienced violence, threats or trauma as a consequence of their work. (Belfast and District)
(9) Professional Training: It is disappointing
that the pledge made by the NUJ General Secretary at the 2015 BDC to allocate resources for training of Irish members and offer online training options to Irish members has not been acted upon.
The pledge was made following the branch's
request for similar skills training courses offered to members in England, Scotland and Wales to be made available to members in Ireland. This BDC calls on the incoming IEC to seek information from the General Secretary with regard to training options for members in Ireland who continue to be disadvantaged in this regard. (West of Ireland)
(10) The West of Ireland Branch congratulates
Brendan Carroll and Carolyn Farrar on their excellent work on the Irish Journalist. This BDC asks the IEC to continue to support the production of the Irish Journalist and liaise with and seek assistance from the NEC if additional support for its continued production is needed, including allocating further financial support in order to retain, enhance and promote its valuable communication with Irish members.
