Survey duration to be one week, no longer. Darwin to be held late in the year while Adelaide and Melbourne to be held in August.

Rodney moved that Due to high demand at the Video Night, only those attending the AGM itself will be allowed to attend the Video Night. Seconded by Jane Oneill. A once off fee to be paid for all 3 days. All members/ex-members/unpaid members/students/part time members and friends etc to be contacted. As many people as possible to be contacted for the survey.
Get as much exposure as humanly possible for the AGM

 
ASWA Membership renewals
It was decided that the special AGM/Membership deal only be available for new memberships and not renewals. This is due to an excessive number of people utilising the deal which results in a lower income and a lot of renewals in August.

Calanders
Tuan Phan had some good suggestions.
Tuan suggested that Panorama images be used instead of the standard images. Committee to investigate a business relationship with the Alfred Hospital with a view for calander sales. Tuan to get things going and ASWA Victoria to follow up.
