Some points remain to be clarified with insurers and/or JW. * Actions: * DH to resolve remaining points with Nicola at CaSEINSURANCE. * We suspect they may require us to provide appropriate H&S documentation. If so we will need to put it in place before proceeding. * DW to approach JW to clarify some of his comments/questions. * Thanks to DH, MV and JW for all their work to date! * **Pillar drill large purchase proposal** * Agreed to spend up to £500 for a floorstanding good-quality one, in preference to spending less money on a poor-quality benchtop one. * Outstanding question: who will research and purchase it? * Other agenda items postponed to next meeting!
