HCC changes  

Historically PMBHA has had a seat on the Committee. The Committee reports on issues and presents budget and expenditure details. Committee members are able to raise issues.
 
The Committee is to continue but with changes which will satisfy the requirements of the Harbour Safety Code. The Committee will be made up of Councillors, Council officials and 7 seats for interested bodies, each to submit reason for membership. The Council Board will confirm membership.

The HCC will become a more important forum.

·        John Carlin (Grand slam) advised that his boat has been “hit” 5 times by smaller park and launch boats waiting to be towed out by the slipway.  He has asked whether more signage could be displayed in the area of the slipway.  He was advised to discuss the issue with WW (Hafan Manager).
