Issue - meetings

To receive the report of the Chief Executive, Alexandra Palace Trading Limited (APTL) advising the Committee on forthcoming events to the end of the financial year.

RECEIVED the papers as set out in the agenda pack, introduced by Duncan Wilson – Chief Executive, Alexandra Palace and Park.

NOTED

·        The schedule of events - preparations for Holland Heineken House was running to plan, the Olympic Torch relay celebration would take place at the Palace on 25 May and a Diamond Jubilee community event would take place over the Bank Holiday.

·        The report included the recommendations of the Lock and Load security review.  It was reassuring to note that the independent consultants had concluded that the two deaths were not in any way attributable to the actions or omissions of APTL, the promoter’s or the contractor’s staff.  Councillor Cooke added that the report had been considered in detail by the Board, who were confident that the best systems were now in place.

RESOLVED to note the report.
