May 2013 – AGM quick updates

Hi all,

Just a quick update that your new LAS Council for the year 2013 to 2015 has been elected. The following are members and their positions in the Council. The election went smoothly without any incidents or objections to the proceedings. It was one of the quickest AGM, I have had the opportunity to attend!
