The Radio Amateurs' Emergency Networks activities are managed and co-ordinated
by the Committee of Management. The Committee comprises the Chairman,
Secretary, Treasurer and the Zone Co-ordinators.
Like members of RAYNET groups, the Committee of Management are all
volunteers who give their time and other resources to the work of The
Network. Indeed in addition to their Committee of Management duties,
they are all active members of their local groups. The Zone
Co-ordinators are elected by the membership of their Zone to serve
on the Committee of Management for a period of three years.
The Committee of Management exists to:
- Provide a centre of advice and information for members, their groups
and user services.
- Provide a wide range of services that
can be more efficiently organised on a national basis.
- Facilitate the provision of resources beyond the scope of individual
groups and their immediate contacts.
- Provide a national point of contact and liaison for user services,
government departments & agencies, and other national and international
bodies.
The Radio Amateurs' Emergency Network seeks to work in co-operation
with its members and their Groups. Advice will be offered but the Committee
of Management is not part of a rigid "command structure"
