Mobilise For National Congress Now

Ógra Shinn Féin to hold National Congress 3-5 November

The current Ógra Shinn Féin National Executive met for the last time on Saturday before a new executive will be elected at the National Congress in November.

The National Congress was the main item on the agenda. The National Congress will take place 3 – 5 November in Liberty Hall, Dublin and the leadership address will be delivered by Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams.

A number of International delegations will be invited from youth movements in Palestine, the Basque Country, Cuba, South Africa, Catalonia , and Britain.

Ógra Shinn Féin will also launch a new campaign at the Congress.

The National Congress is Ógra’s equivalent of Sinn Féin’s Ard Fheis and helps formulate policies, campaigns and a workplan for the year ahead.

All motions, delegates, and nominations to the National Executive and Ard Comhairle must be submitted by Monday 16 October at 5pm.

The cut of date for amendments to motions will be Monday 23 October at 5pm.

Also the feedback from the National Executive is that this will be the largest Congress yet. In order to accommodate the large numbers expected all cumann are asked to forward list of activists attending Congress by Monday 16 October.
Come along to the 8th ÓSF National Congress and 'play your part!'

Send all submittions to osfnational@yahoo.ie.
