Project Group Update

Now that there is focus on detail and a start date is in view, the aim is to get the support groups organised on a more formal basis.

The breakdown of tasks/roles of a group is not fixed but will evolve to meet the real world.

Each group has a “Convenor” whose role is to pull things together and ther eis flexibility in the way they work with their own group. Ccontributors can work with more than one group.
