<strong>and</strong> open in how we operate. Our publication<br />

we are doing in meeting those goals. Major policy<br />
proposals <strong>and</strong> decisions are made by the Board<br />
<strong>and</strong> the agendas <strong>and</strong> minutes for the Board<br />
meetings are published on Sport Engl<strong>and</strong>’s<br />
