As a member of the United Kingdom Delegation you will be expected to:

	support the UK brief (whether expressed in writing, or developed informally in UK delegation meetings during the meeting) on the matters being discussed both in formal and informal meetings
	keep any briefing material confidential
	consult the head of delegation where the UK position seems unclear, and take part as far as possible in any briefing meetings
	keep the head of delegation informed of the progress and any difficulties being experienced
	inform the head of delegation of the period of attendance at the meeting and the time of departure

It is recognised that representatives of Sector Members may register both as a UK delegate and a representative of the Sector Member.

Should you consider that the UK written brief conflicts with the views of your Sector Member, and that you would wish to speak in support of your Sector Member position, you should only register as a representative of your Sector Member and not as a UK delegate. If this situation arises during the meeting and you wish to speak against the UK position, you should withdraw your membership of the UK delegation.
