Item
- Title
- Transport and General Workers Union: Congress Report Financial Progress Report (July 1988 – November 1989)
- Date
- 1989-11-uu
- Description
- A detailed financial assessment was presented to the T&GWU Congress. The report notes a significant stabilisation of union finances, primarily due to the 1988 Congress decision to increase membership subscriptions from R3 to R4. Despite improved internal income, the report issues a "note of caution" regarding rising expenditure and a continued "heavy reliance" on overseas funders for legal fees and education programs. It warns that without disciplined spending, the union faces a return to a "constant threat of bank overdraft" and remains far from achieving total self-sufficiency.
