·       The Chairman was very pleased to advise that Deputy Billy Dove, a long serving Member of the Barbican Residential Committee, had been awarded an OBE in the Queen’s Birthday Honours for public services.

·       Members noted this would be the last meeting of Eddie Stevens, the Housing and Technical Services Director, prior to his retirement in September.  Mr Stevens was highly commended for his fairness, integrity and good humour; the RCC regarded him as a friend to the residents.  Members stood to give Mr Stevens a round of applause.  In responding, Mr Stevens thanked the Committee and said it had been a privilege to serve the City of London Corporation and the Barbican Estate.
