Thanks again for all the support. Now let's get this show back on the road and quickly to make up for lost time.
- produce EML v5 to reflect the proposed changes currently posted on the TC website - see attached
Happy to hear of additions to this list.
But first let's get a TC meeting organised, either next week or the week after. I no longer have access to meeting rooms and teleconference facitilies, so can someone provide both for a meeting please, preferably in London?
If you have any other items for the agenda please let me know.
Hearing no objections, I hereby declare John Borras Chair of the Election and
Voter Services TC!
Welcome back, John!
