Matters arising
The Chairman expressed his concern that a 50% increase in travelling allowance had been passed, when the Treasurer was not at the meeting The Secretary agreed, but as the matter was raised by the Assistant Treasurer, the meeting considered it was in order, However the Secretary said the this decision could be revisited now The Assistant Treasurer then stated he had not been the one to raise the issue at the previous meeting. The Secretary disagreed, but said if there were any doubt, we should re-visit the decision made.

The Treasurer stated that that would not be necessary, but in future all decisions regarding Finance, should only be made when the Treasurer was present.

Manager
Mr Thomas proposed Mr Bruce Brown continue in post, this was Seconded by Mr. Lewis. There were no other nominations

Insurance
The Chairman, the Secretary and Mr. Lewis had made enquiries to try & incorporate a Physiotherapy package into the Policy, but the costs were prohibitive. The Chairman will therefore ensure that our old policy is renewed in September 06, to cover our players for next season.
