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 should evolve to meet the real world.
• Each group needs a “Convenor” to pull things together
• Each group could work in a different way
• You could be a contributor to more than one group.

• Technical Services and interior fittings      Paul Morgan
• Project Funding                                     Mike Sanders
