The Chairman started by introducing Marianne Fredericks to her first meeting as a Member of the Committee and thanked Gerald Pulman, who had recently retired from the Court of Common Council, for his service and contributions to the Port Health and Environmental Services Committee.

The Chairman also added congratulations to two members of the City of London Waste Collection and Street Cleansing Team who had recently been awarded the British Empire Medal for their voluntary service to the British Legion Poppy Appeal.
