Cut in Capitation for CILIP Special Interest Groups and Branches

Some of you may already have heard that on December 7th CILIP Council agreed and accepted a paper on a new business model for CILIP. One of the changes for 2007 is the 50 per cent reduction in capitation for Groups and Branches; this is the amount that CILIP pays to Groups and Branches for each of their members who join via CILIP.

On behalf of the UKeiG Management Committee, I would like to reassure UKeiG members that this will not affect the services and activities that we offer. UKeiG has always believed in being self-supporting, especially as the current capitation formula nowhere near covers the costs of maintaining and supporting a member in the way we wish to do so.

As far as UKeiG is concerned, it is business as usual in 2007!
