General Business: Bank signatories need to be changed. The membership list still needs to be co-ordinated, but the Treasurer is having difficulty getting details from LIANZA. Membership of the SIG also means that people should be members of LIANZA. Only 20% of SIG members can be non-LIANZA members. Ann parker recommended that people urge colleagues to join.
The meeting closed at 6 pm.
