Shortly the Northern Branch Returning Officer will be calling for nominations for the election of the Northern Branch President.

The Northern Branch President is a member of the Union National Committee and a Delegate to Conference.
In accordance with Rule B 11.7, of the Rules of the New Zealand Professional Fire Fighters Union INC, I am declaring the results for the position of Palmerston North Local President as listed below.
One of the ideas that came up during the Auckland Working Group was to change the shift start/finish times to 0700/1700 to reflect the actual times Auckland Firefighters’ work.
As members will know, First Union members of St Johns are scheduled to strike on Wednesday 25 November.
