A brief discussion then took place as to how the forthcoming meeting was to be managed with Members suggesting that they should adopt a listening role, consider how the average person could be assisted and see what could be done to improve the flow of capital and encourage business. The importance of getting business representatives with different experiences in obtaining finance, to attend the meeting, was also emphasised. |
