The paper and each recommendation therein was discussed.
a)
The Board agreed to the closure of the Forum, subject to the successful implementation of the initiatives at b & c.
b)
The Board agreed to the implementation of a “Questions For Directors” facility on the
website.
c)
The Board agreed to the instigation of an all member monthly email, providing news and updates on matter that may be of interest to our members. The first would be before
the end of March.
