Attendance at meetings

Membership of the Group is explicitly restricted to MPs and Peers. The purpose of the meetings is to allow MPs and Peers to hear about and debate current issues away from party politics. The All-Party Parliamentary Group on AIDS values its contacts with the HIV sector outside parliament very highly, including professionals, volunteers and people infected and affected by HIV. For each meeting, the Group tries to invite a limited number of guests relevant to the subject under discussion to listen to presentations and sometimes, to contribute. There is no permanent invitation list, the meetings are not public and it is not possible to invite more than a limited number to each meeting.

The APPG AIDS produces regular updates with parliamentary information as well as notice of the subject of future meetings. Colleagues are then welcome to request an invitation to a meeting if they have a particular interest in the subject under discussion. We hope that colleagues understand that it is not possible to invite everyone who may wish to attend.
