This was discussed at some length at the AGM. The problem is that
the end of the accounting year and the AGM more or less coincide at
the moment which meant there were no final accounts for the year to
present at the AGM.

There was discussion about how to handle the accounts which should
be in the minutes when they are published, and about possibly trying
to alter the timings so that things were easier in future.
