Advisory Council Chairman's report
Paul Cherry was unable to attend in person. His report had been provided in the meeting papers and was tabled. Several Trustees noted that the increase in the level of attendance by Trustees at the Advisory Council meeting had led to much better dialogue with the Council. The Council had been particularly influential in the development of the Strategy Paper and continued to add value in other areas.
Trustees asked that there might be better coordination of Trustees' and Advisory Council meetings. It was noted that such coordination had been scheduled in October, when the Trustees could attend the first day of the Council, before travelling to France for the Trustees' meeting.
