Report of the Chamberlain.

Consideration was given to a report of the Chamberlain which provided the Committee with information regarding the current balance of the Finance Committee Contingency Funds for the current year.

The Chairman asked for confirmation of what donations the Corporation had previously made to the Syrian Refugee Crisis. The Town Clerk advised that the Corporation had made a £50,000 donation to the Disaster Emergency Committee’s (DEC’s) Syrian Refugee appeal in 2013. This donation had been spent in Syria and neighbouring countries to provide relief to the refugees there. The Chairman advised the Committee that he would keep apprised of developments with this issue.

RESOLVED – That the Committee notes the report.
