2. Pending expenditure of the accumulated surplus, the cash is being invested to produce further income.

3. On 1st November 1982 the book stock was sold to APL Publications, run by Mr. L. Hollingbery. The committee decided that the administration of book sales was becoming too onerous for it to be carried out by members of the committee, who receive no fees for work carried out on behalf of the User Group.

(The accounts have been signed by Jonathan Barman as Treasurer and audited by Anne Raikes MA FCA).

19th January 1984

Editor's comment: The Loughborough conference swelled the finance of the Association substantially and is in part the reason for the expanded programme of activities and journal content that your Committee has embarked on for the 1984/85 year.
