After an internal dispute over the management styles, Deprez became interim President of the UGDA after an extraordinary congress on 29 October 2015.[3] This position was confirmed on 28 February 2016. Deprez vowed to renew the statues of the UGDA and to intensify the relations with member associations.[4] In July 2016, she was confronted with accusations from the Fédération générale de la fonction communale, the municipal employees' union about poor working conditions and insecure employment relationships for music school teachers with temporary employment contracts, for which the UGDA was responsible.
