+    <p>HST has asked JP to take on the property portfolio, primarily 3F2 in the first
+instance.  Changes in Trustee membership need to be updated to Clan Gordon, and

+    <p>For the benefit of those not on the appointments panel (RF, KM, HST), HST gave a short recap of the events from the interviews onwards.</p>
+    <p>We discussed how we should respond to the email HST recently received
+from Majk Stokes (MS):  We need to apologise as a committee for the lack of
+support from his line management, including ourselves.</p>
+    <p>We considered both the timing and the appropriate structure for a
+response, and concluded that:</p>
+    <list>
+     <item>Attempting to provide detailed written responses was neither
+possible nor appropriate</item>
+     <item>That a meeting, perhaps best thought of as a threshing meeting, with the appointments panel to address the questions
+as best we could was the right first step, but would need time to prepare
+carefully for</item>
+     <item>Only after such a meeting would a Meeting for Clearness to help MS
+look forward be appropriate</item>
+     <item>The role of the Friends asked to help someone in a Meeting for
+Clearness is to listen, and to <emph>ask</emph> questions, not to answer them</item>
+     <item>Esther Shreve was mentioned as a possible person from outside the
+appointments process to invite to a Clearness meeting</item>

+   <p>We <name>AGREED</name> to continue the salary and hours uplift for the
+Meeting House contract staff (MS,
+Ellie Giles and Ken Latham) through November, as the new Managers will not be in
+post before the middle of the month, and thereafter the responsibility for helping them learn
+their new roles will fall primarily on the contract staff.
