The Management Committee comprise tenants who are elected at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the end of June each year.
There must be a minimum of 7 people on the Committee and a maximum of 15 (including any co-optees). At the first meeting of the Committee (in July) after the AGM, the Committee elects from within its number, a Chairperson, Secretary and Treasurer (the Honorary Officers/Office-Bearers).
The powers of the Co-operative, the Management Committee and other such matters are set out in the Rules of the Co-operative. See our webpage Who regulates us? for more information.
The minutes of the Management Committee are published monthly by Lister – click MC Minutes here or visit our ‘Get involved’ page.
The Committee has the power to co-opt individuals (who need not be tenants/members) onto the Committee, though Lister has never Co-opted a non-tenant to date.
