The Council also serves as a reference point to advise members of the medical profession who may have concerns about alcohol abuse amongst colleagues or in themselves. When first established as the Medical Council on Alcoholism in 1967 membership was confined to registered medical practitioners but in 1986 Associate Membership was introduced: this includes both non-medical and institutional membership. Members of the Council are spread throughout the United Kingdom. They include psychiatrists, physicians, surgeons, general practitioners, nurses and health care workers from many other disciplines. Over the years, greater emphasis has been placed on prevention of medical problems due to alcohol. As a result, the name of the organisation changed to the Medical Council on Alcohol following a postal questionnaire to members and promulgated at an Extraordinary General Meeting in July 2001. The following notes are for your information and are derived from the Articles of Association. The Articles are provided to new members. Fees are for the current calendar year and for full members are tax deductible. Full Membership Only Full Members (medical practitioners) who have paid their annual subscription are entitled to vote at Council meetings. Associate Membership Associate Members (non-medical) are entitled to all the advantages of membership with the exception of voting rights. Renewing Membership Membership is renewed each January. You will be notified of any increase in membership subscriptions. Each year you will be sent a renewal notice. A reminder letter is usually sent at the end of March to those who have not paid. Should membership be six months in arrears those names are presented to the Executive Committee for removal from the membership list. Journal Subscription The subscription year for the Journal “Alcohol and Alcoholism” runs from January and to ensure an uninterrupted flow of journals, you will need to renew your subscription promptly. Membership of the Executive Committee All Full Members are eligible for election to the Executive Committee. Individuals must be nominated and seconded and assent, in writing, to their nomination. Prior to the Annual General Meeting each year notices will be sent out to Members in the UK which, among other things, will ask for nominations. Annual General Meeting This is held in November of each year in London and customarily features a lecture by a distinguished invited speaker after the end of formal business; lunch; and a Seminar which, in the recent past has qualified for CPD and PGEA points. The 2005 Seminar will be on Alcohol and Doctors.
