    The Conference will no doubt recall that, at the Conference meeting in June 2007, it was agreed that there should be an opportunity for Parish and Town Councils to share their experiences and successes in relation to projects and schemes that they may be involved in.

    Hence, the Conference is invited to agree the presentation for the next Conference in June 2012.

    N.B. In consultation with the Chairman of DALC, it was agreed that one issue would be dealt with by way of an information leaflet rather than a discussion item for the agenda. This will be available at the meeting.
