Model Resolutions

Related to model policies, these are appropriate to councils, political parties, unions, etc.

Campaigners write a resolution and persuade an ally to present it for adoption.

Take advice from allies within the targetted organisation on the best way to draft and present your resolution.
In local authorities, friendly officers may help with background information and advice, both technical and political.
Be sensitive to local political circumstances.
Commitments requiring immediate expenditure by the ruling party will meet resistance. It is sometimes better to make progress in stages - getting a policy adopted in principle before working to translate it into expenditure and activity.
Research the background extremely thoroughly.
