*Subject: LIPD article in Electronics Australia

The article by Jim Rowe was thought to be inaccurate and misleading by those who had read it.

*Subject: Pensioner AR Subs

WIA subs for pensioner grade now reflect full cost of AR Magazine.

*Subject: Canadians have Free Licence

This was discussed in detail, it was thought that the WIA should lobby for free licence, one participant thought that the cost of the licence was part of being on air.

*Subject: Direction of WIA

Need to improve performance was discussed.
