Other business:
o Pieter asks for a decision to be made on how to deal with some people that were involved in getting IBPSA-England off the ground, but who are not formally on the Board. It was decided that such people should be invited, but cannot vote if voting was necessary. A remaining question is whether Board meetings will be open to wider membership, and if so, how people might be invited without loosing control of the planning of meetings (e.g. catering).
o Jonathan notes that IBPSA World will expect an annual report from IBPSA England. To be written by Pieter as secretary, close to BS’07 (?)


Decisions
• Efforts for submission for an EPSRC Network grant to be continued.
• Possible relationships with CIBSE to be investigated.
• Website to be tested and further development to be guided by (1) having information on offer that entices people to join IBPSA-England and (2) manage the time needed to maintain the site.
• Regular (but not annoyingly frequent) emailings to go out to members to inform them of activities and interesting developments.
• Option to hold money is put on hold, with the aim of running the DMU event as a test of the ‘short courses’ option, and BS’07 as an option to try to get some cash without incurring any risks.
