Records Officers Report:
First of all I would like to say how sorry I was to hear about the death of our Patron Lady Beattie who I met when she attended the Whangarei Conference in 2009.  It was a real pleasure to have her with us and easy to entertain. She will be sadly missed by her family.
As this is probably going to be my last conference as your Records Officer I would like to thank all those who have helped me in some way over the past 13 years and wish whoever takes over all the best in the coming year as it can be quite a thankless job at times especially when people question decisions that you have made. God Guard Thee Dawn.

Major Yearbury spoke on B Squadron money this was to show in future a balance of $663.00 less the expenses of capitations each year as a small income and Expenditure account.

Sgt Bracey spoke on the information in the journals, and that comments of a non positive manner in the journal need to cease.

Lieut Robin Cawte asked about the uniform that belonged to the late Gold Pnr Ray Hammond.  The family had handed these back to stores for re-distribution, it was in fact a jacket that the QM stores had already given to Ray only one year beforehand, the Mess Jacket Ray had himself handed in at Taupo, the medals are being held by the family.  Ray had also sent a lot of papers and materials to Captain Baker for archives only one month before his death.

Major Yearbury asked of Pnr Ann Sheary why the G Squadron account had not been closed. Captain Baker replied as she had instructed Pnr Sheary not to, until after the elections of conference, as the constitution on the unit needed to be sorted out first to fix an error that had been made by some of the NZ Staff members without the knowledge of others. Once this was completed the account would be closed accordingly.

Each of those new members from O Troop who had not attended a conference before stood and introduced themselves to the Command.
