7. A.O.B

i)	BL brought correspondence from Yorkshire County regarding requests for charity status and a request asking how this affects REVCOM. It was agreed that this reflects the current state of charity legislation, and not the up-coming changes.
ii)	BL and AI brought up the topic of the new PMR business licenses, specifically the lower fees involved, loss of virtually-private frequencies and the possible loss of use of older sets. AI provided Denis with a leaflet containing basic information.  DJ stated that he had received no information from the RA regarding any changes to the license, nor had he yet received a reminder about renewing our existing one.  DJ to chase up with the RA.
iii)	BL brought a quote for a larger magnetic reflective sign, 24” x 8” at £32+VAT.  AD to provide JDL with an original REVCOM logo to allow a quote to be obtained.
iv)	JS stated that the insurance had gone up by £105.  Both MP and JS have tried to get better quotes but without success.  This represents £5.87 per member per year purely for insurance.  JS stated that expenditure now exceeds income and suggests looking at an increase of membership subscriptions by 50p per member – the first one for 5 years.
