Mr Dowsett welcomed returning members and Councillors Gilbert and Lucas to the meeting. He provided background to the establishment of the Board, its role as an advisory group, area of responsibility and the Board’s delegations.
Members were reminded of the need to stand aside from decision-making when a conflict arose between their role as an elected representative and any private or other external interest they might have.
Peter Smith advised of two changes to the register of interest: 1) he is no longer Trustee and Secretary of the Dunedin East Rotary Charitable Trust 2) his change in role with the Otago Settlers Association from Chairperson to that of Past President.
The meeting concluded at 10:15 am.
