A meeting of the Finance, Membership and General Purposes
Committee was held at the Guildhall and it was my final one as Chairman. As
previously reported, the Committee is a pivotal in ensuring that the Company
remains financially sound and has a good supply of new members. This doesn’t
happen by accident and it is only through the hard work of all those involved,
especially the Clerk, that the Company is in as good a shape as it is.
I was very pleased to note that the Events budget for the
year has produced a small profit. So too has our recent sale of Company
umbrellas (thanks to Court Assistant Christine Duthie for sorting this out!).
Modest sums, but every little helps.
We also took time to discuss the final outturn for the Revenue
budget year ending July 2019 and noted that this too is on track. My thanks to
the Clerk for keeping such a close eye on this throughout the year.
There were other issues to be discussed, much of which concerned
our continually expanding external affairs programme; all very exciting. I am
confident that as I had over to the Master-Elect on 8 July the Company
continues to thrive and prosper.
A very successful meeting and my thanks once again to all
members of the Committee for their hard work and support.
