Prior to the proceedings commencing delegates were asked to stand in silence in memory of those delegates to Council who had sadly passed away during the year. These were noted as David Reeves, past Secretary of the ASA, Tom Little, ASA Diving Committee and Past President of Kent ASA, Noel Winter, Facilities Officer of the ASA and Water Polo Secretary, Pat Gabbitas of the North West Region and H H V Wilkinson, long serving Treasurer of the Southern Counties and ASA Committee member. 1. APOLOGIES 1.1. Apologies were received and accepted from: Ann Barker – Chairman, ASA Diving Committee, Paul Davies – Strategic Lead, Grow, David Russell – South West Region, Keith Chisholm – North West Region, Greig Allen – Chairman, Audit and Probity, Garry Whittle – North West Region, Janet Hedger – South East Region Ray Hedger – ASA Board. 2. DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST 2.1. None declared. 3. MEETING RULES OF DEBATE 3.1. Members were reminded of the Rules of Debate, which should be adhered to. 4. MINUTES OF THE COUNCIL MEETING HELD 22 OCTOBER 2011 4.1. The minutes were agreed as a correct record. 5. ACTIONS ARISING FROM THE MINUTES OF THE COUNCIL MEETING HELD 22 OCTOBER 2011 5.1. These had been circulated to delegates and were noted as complete. 6. MATTERS ARISING FROM THE MINUTES OF THE COUNCIL MEETING HELD 22 OCTOBER 2011 6.1. In response to a query regarding a statement by the Chief Executive on Clubs the following starred item was raised. 6.1.1. Starred Item A1 - Clubs – South East Region - The Chief Executive Officer admitted that clubs had been neglected in the recent past and that this would be addressed during the year. To date, some 12 months later, no concrete proposals have been published regarding ASA enhanced support for clubs and many clubs are reporting almost total lack of visibility of ASA staff in their areas over recent months. Response: During the year the Regional Chairs, Chief Executive Officer, ASA Chairman, Strategic Lead Grow and Chief Operating Officer met to discuss the level and type of support required by clubs and it was agreed to set up a working group to consider this and to undertake consultation. It was felt there were three areas which required consideration and focus: Support of the existing clubs on a day-to-day basis; the creation and support of a different style of club which meets recreational and participation needs of the wider sport and which links into a pathway of clubs; the evolution and support of existing clubs to help them move forward on a business footing to ensure sustainability.
