1. Apologies for absence were received from Reuben Thorpe, Brian Philp, Brenda Hobbs, Kate Fielden, Chris
Cumberpatch, Pam Irving, Paul Everill , Simon Pope and Helen Patterson
2. The minutes of the last AGM were signed as a true record, proposed Roy Friendship-Taylor and seconded John
Browning.
6. Treasurer’s Report:
Income has declined over the year, mostly due to fewer subscriptions. She urged all members to hand out leaflets
during the conference and to try to get new members. First Aid for Finds is now officially out of print. The need to
sell the other publications in order to keep income up was stressed. Although costs are up, this is an artificial rise
due to the production of only 2 Rescue News in the previous year instead of the normal 3. Excess of income over
expenditure is down, but still an excess.
The accounts were approved, proposed Roy Friendship-Taylor, seconded Jo Caruth, carried nem con.
Les Reeve was reappointed as auditor, proposed by Jude Plouviez and seconded by Roy Friendship-Taylor,
carried nem con.
8. Election of Officers:
Mick Jones is standing down from vice chair. Chris Cumberpatch was elected in his place, carried nem con.
The rest of the officers were re-elected en bloc, carried nem con.
9. AOB:
Brief discussions were had about:
• the recently published Conservative green paper on planning with a plea that Rescue would react to it. It
was noted that there would be an article on this in the next RN immediately after the election.
• the high speed rail link.
• the news that PPS5 was going to be launched on the following Monday despite few people having seen it
and against ours and others recommendations for more consultation.
• finally discussion was had about how to celebrate Rescue's 40th anniversary in 2011 and the possibility of
holding a high profile AGM meeting in York was suggested.
