Equal Opportunities

Item 4 concerns mainstreaming equal opportunities in committees. Members have a report on that. The Equal Opportunities Committee has proposed that members of all committees should be involved in research workshops to ensure mainstreaming techniques are relevant and applicable for the committees. We aim to nominate one member of the committee to attend a workshop, which will be held on the evening of Wednesday 20 June. We probably all agree that it is a good idea to find a way of ensuring that equal opportunities are reflected in the work of all the committees.

Does anyone volunteer to be involved on behalf of the committee? Various people are averting their eyes.

I volunteer.

Good for you. If you had not volunteered, it would have had to be me.

Dorothy-Grace Elder will no doubt report back on that matter—verbally will be good enough.

Meeting continued in private until 10:31.
