How does the FLAG operate?
For efficient and effective delivery of the strategy objectives all funding decisions are made by the FLAG Board. This Board is elected annually by the FLAG membership. All Board members serve on a voluntary basis. In addition the Board may co-opt non-voting advisors to provide specialist guidance. The Board meets approximately every six weeks throughout the year.
Day to day operation of the FLAG is coordinated by a small programme & administration team.
