FUTURE OF THE ASSET - VERBAL UPDATE BY THE GENERAL MANAGER - ALEXANDRA PALACE
Minutes:
The Chair asked for a brief introduction of the item.
The General Manager, Mr Holder, advised that the Charity Commission had considered the matter of the Order on 3rd April 2007 and had made a “decision in principle” that it should be granted. The Commissioners would hold a further meeting during the week commencing 23 April 2007, likely to be 27 April, to formally set out their reasons. The Order and the reasons would then be published together. The content of the order was unlikely to be significantly different to the draft with the exception of replicating the relationship between the Alexandra Park and Palace Advisory Committee and the Board as recited in the Alexandra Park and Palace Act 1985.
In response to questions from Ms Feeney, Mr Holder advised that whilst there had been assurances of a “decision in principle” the Charity Commission must legally issue the Order and its reasons concurrently. This was the purpose for the further meeting.
There being no further points of clarification the Chair thanked Mr Holder for his brief update.
RESOLVED
That the verbal update be noted.
