Once this plan has been agreed, it will form the focus of a consultation with members before the Annual Conference. Subsequently, it will be the basis of an open forum discussion at the Annual Assembly during the Annual Conference when members and non-members can comment on its proposals. The plan will then be consulted on via all PSA networks (eg specialist groups and committees) and also through external stakeholder networks to encourage involvement from a more diverse range of groups than we engage with currently. Once agreed, the evaluation metrics set out in Appendix One will be reviewed, and formal three-yearly review dates set. An annual business plan for 2017 will then be distilled from these strategic aims, and each member of staff will be responsible for drawing down annual objectives from the plan for their area of responsibility. This process will happen each subsequent calendar year and will feed into each of the reviews. These planning tasks will be led by the new Chief Executive Officer starting in Spring 2017, with support from the PSA staff. The results of the three-yearly reviews, which will be undertaken by an independent assessor and made available as an Executive Report, will be disseminated widely to increase the visibility of the PSA and promote the changes it is making towards being a more inclusive, forward-thinking, diverse association for the promotion of politics.
