Venue: Meeting room 3

Chair: Steve Clapton

Present: Rebecca Palmer, Sam Wills, Monica Brown, Nick Flemming

Apologies and minutes: Michael and Catherine sent their apologies. Rebecca read the minutes of the last minutes and everybody agreed that they were accurate. Sam agreed to take the minutes of this meeting.

1. Car parking

There was a lot of discussion about building a site for car parking. Steve, Rebecca and Sam were for this, but Monica and Nick were against.

It was decided to ask employees if they would support the idea to reduce car use, like leaving their cars at home one day a week. There was a difference of opinions between Rebecca and Monica about this.

Action points: Monica is to find out opinions of all employees who use cars and report at the next meeting.

2. Staff restaurant

Sam said that we must find exact costs of the restaurant today, compared to costs of possible outside food supplier. We decided to set a target of a 10 per cent reduction in costs for the company.

Action points: Sam is to research the costs and report back by email before the next meeting.

3. Staff holidays

We discussed what happened last year when too many people were away in August and customers complained. We decided that staff must take two weeks in winter and two weeks in summer. We voted on this and the vote was unanimous.

Next meeting: 1^st March, meeting room 5
