I propose that the secretariat circulate the autumn work programme and the suggestions made regarding it ahead of next week's meeting. Do the members have any other suggestions for meetings or to bring to the notice of the secretariat? As we have done in the past few years, I have a proposal for our first meeting when we come back after the recess. We return on a Wednesday, so we would be scheduled to have a meeting the next day. I suggest the first meeting should be a business meeting.

This is because there will be a bale of correspondence matters to be dealt with. Is that agreed? Agreed. I think we are coming back on 17 September or 18 September.
