Questions on matters relating to the work of the Committee

Minutes:

Prince Henry’s Room

In response to a Member’s question, the Director of Culture, Heritage and Libraries advised that the consultation that was looking at future uses for Prince Henry’s Room was still in progress, but added that he would look at what could be done to commemorate the 400th anniversary of Prince Henry’s death on 6 November 2012.

 

Celebrate the City

The Chairman congratulated the Director and his team for their excellent organisation of events following the unexpected withdrawal of the professional event organisers and suggested that Members of the Committee should be asked for their assistance if such a situation were to arise again in order to make best use of Members’ connections.

 

Cartmarking

The Chairman queried whether, given the considerable lack of response to his correspondence with the Cartmarkers, the Committee should amend its terms of reference to no longer include responsibility for Cartmarking. In response, the Town Clerk indicated that the matter would be taken up personally and that clarification as to whether the Committee was legally accountable for the Cartmaking would be given.
