Apologies for absence were received from Nicholas Bensted-Smith, Tom Hoffman, Ann Holmes, Edward Lord, Alderman Julian Malins, Chris Punter, Elizabeth Rogula, James De Sausmarez, Ian Seaton, David Thompson and Mark Wheatley.

It was noted that a clash of Grand Committee meetings with the Board of Governors of the City of London School for Girls had meant that five members had had to submit apologies for one of the two meetings. The Town Clerk explained that the meeting of the Board of Governors of the City of London School for Girls had been moved from its original date, and apologised that the conflict had not been recognised sooner.
