Officer.

 

06/01/19. 4. With a view to what points that might be made at
the Discussion of Annual Report of the Council scheduled for 24 January the
Board decided that the publication of a form of the Estate Plan should be
welcomed; that a record of attendance at Council would also be welcome; that
the circulation of the 'blue paper on strategy' should be queried;

 

06/01/19. 5a. Considering
the Annual Report of the General Board with the same view the Board considered
that, with reference to para. 16.1, the General Board could usefully consider
how better to handle any future situation in which the possibility of closing
down a department or faculty had to be contemplated.

 

06/01/19. 5b. 
With
respect to para. 17.4 the Board
considered that the represen­tations made by Professor A. W. F. Edwards might
be relevant.

 

06/01/19. 6a.  As a
preliminary to discussion of the Abstract of Accounts the chairman and other
members of the deputation reported on their meeting with the Director of
Finance, which had been very useful in clarifying a number of issues, including
two separate transfers from Cambridge Assessment.

 

06/01/19. 6b. 
It
was reported that the Director of Finance had freely (if not
cheerfully) admitted that paragraph 6 (Triennial valuation of the scheme)
contained an error: 'increased to 22.5%' should read 'increased from 22.5% to
25.7%'.

 

06/01/19. 7.  The Board
expressed its admiration for the savings that had been achieved by the Schools.

 

06/01/19. 8.  Under Any

Cambridge.

 

06/01/19. 9.  The next
meeting would be on 9 February, when the Board looked forward to a discussion
with the Registrary.
