2. For information;

2.1. Train the Trainers

Will be starting review of scheme in April.

2.2 Signatures on wiki

Risk identified. No new signatures of trustees being uploaded. Looking for systems to avoid all signatures being uploaded. Have asked for trustees to identify any documents that need redacting. Risk seen as low as office wiki is relatively secure.

2.3 Thefts from stolen Alto Card details. Mostly returned by Bank – being chased.

2.4. Altering Daria's Job Description to reflect her new duties. No financial implications.

2.5. Annual report and audit Awaiting numbers from accountants, all going well 'much better than last year' plus sign-off on Chair and CE paras.

2.8 Ongoing matters

QRpedia – press release imminent.

New staff. Katie Chan and Toni Sant have started. Jonathan Cardy on 3rd April.
