You are a human being. You have rights inherent in that reality. You have dignity and worth that exists prior to law.
Lyn Beth Neylon
The VGLRL Committee is voted in by its membership at an annual general meeting scheduled in the Spring of each year.
The Committee is made up of up to 10 current VGLRL members. Four of whom must be men who identify as gay, bisexual, queer or same sex attracted, four women who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, queer or same sex attracted and two positions where no identity needs to be declared.
Committee positions are voted in for two year periods. The Committee of Management may also co-opt VGLRL members to vacant positions throughout the year, with that position becoming available for election at the next AGM.
The Committee of Management is responsible for the day to day running of the organisation, and each member usually heads a portfolio or working group.
Current Committee members include:
Gabriel Aleksandrs
Angela Bell
James Campbell
Barbary Clarke
Many Committee Members also convene working groups or look after portfolios:
