Steering Committee
The NOTICED steering committee consists of 2-3 representatives from each member firm and a representative of The Law Society, and it meets approximately once every two months.
The main functions of the committee are:
- To identify and administer initiatives which will help in achieving NOTICED’s objectives
- To organise events to: (i) discuss issues faced by ethnic minority groups; (ii) share good practices in the legal profession; and (iii) celebrate diversity
- To co-ordinate various diversity activities amongst member firms
Individuals from member firms, who are part of the committee, are appointed to the following board positions through a simple selection process:
- Co-Chairs
- Secretary
- Treasurer
- Website Manager
The board positions are filled on a rotation basis, allowing each member firm an opportunity to appoint their representatives to the board.
In addition, the network has appointed an external adviser and a publicity manager, both of whom form part of the steering committee.
