vi)PRESENTATION AT NEXT CONFERENCE

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 February 2014.

N.B. In consultation with DALC, it was agreed that a briefing note will be available from Karen Williams, Democratic Services Manager, regarding staff structure and contact details at RBWM.
