Issue - meetings

The Chair noted that, at the Board meeting which discussed the future of the FOAPT, the FOAPT representative had been satisfied with the response from the Board. It was noted that the main responsibility of the FOAPT, namely the restoration of the theatre, had completed and it was accepted that the governance changes were appropriate. It was also acknowledged that there would likely be some delay in the FOAPT finalising the governance changes at their annual general meeting due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

It was also reported that virtual meetings had been progressing and that it was particularly important to provide regular training for members to ensure their ability to carry out their work effectively. The Chair noted his gratitude that virtual meetings were continuing as it was important for members to continue to provide input and represent their organisations.
