We recommend that on the occasion of her State Visit to this country, an invitation be extended to Her Excellency Park Guen-hye to honour the City of London Corporation by accepting an Address of Welcome in a suitable box and that she be further asked to accept an invitation to attend a Banquet to be given in her honour in Guildhall on Wednesday, 6th November 2013: it being referred to a Ward Reception Committee, the members of which will be set out in a separately printed and circulated report, to make the necessary arrangements within approved cost parameters, provision for which is contained within the relevant City’s Cash budget and that the Town Clerk be authorised to make changes to the membership of the Committee, in accordance with the rota, if necessary.

 

(This would be a full Court event.)
