The Management Committee, on the recommendation of the National Convention Project Planning Team and after some thought, has decided to postpone the Convention meeting planned for St Andrew’s Day. The decision was taken in view of the potential for Alex Salmond’s Memorial event also to be taking place on that date.
Although we are in close contact with the parties involved, it’s important to stress that we do not yet have any definite confirmation of the details of the Memorial event. The decision to postpone is based on being seen to do the proper thing, as well as the need to give due notice to venue, colleagues and partner organisations.
We are in discussion with the venue, the Greyfriars Charteris Centre, with a view to rescheduling the event for early in the New Year.
