Questions on Matters Relating to the Work of the Committee

Minutes:

A Verderer raised a query regarding the forthcoming excavation of a possible Egyptian artefact in Wanstead Park regarding the  licence conditions, and whether there was any commitment from CoL towards further work or expenditure on the conservation of the artefact. Officers confirmed that the excavation would be funded by the Friends of Epping Forest and the process was being overseen and licenced by Forest Keepers. Any further work or other obligation regarding the artefact would be subject to another report and approval from this Committee. The letter sent to Wanstead Research Group gave no commitment to further undertakings.
