The Engineering Together Committee in the Tees Valley is pleased to announce that it has agreed an official Constitution for our Council.

This outlines obligations for voting, key roles, length of terms and other formalities, allowing us to move forward with ONE VOICE.

It is acknowledged that Professional Engineering Institutions (PEIs) are the core of the group, however others who share our aims are welcome.

We agreed that as a group we stand by our previous objectives and strategy and when decisions are made we stand as ONE VOICE.

Outcomes not ownership

Nurturing networks

Enabling efficiency

Value one vision

Operating openness

Influencing with integrity

Collaboration with compromise

Emphasis on equality
