As he is in contact with small traders and businesses on a monthly basis he is happy to speak to them and to contact the Parish Councils. It was agreed that more work would have to be done in the villages. The group agreed that they were happy for Philip to do this and Denise offered to do South Killingholme. Cards are to be available before 15 March in Immingham and the villages. Mary commented that cards are not always completed and returned to boxes and suggested pre-printed postcards with a free-post return address would be a better way forward, Rick to look into this.

Desktop Research: Rick circulated an Action Plan and explained that this will be updated before each meeting, this will allow the group to see where the gaps are. The web-site is now up and running. http://www.cert.demon.co.uk/healthcheck The latest information from Humber Numbers was circulated and Rick reported that he would be meeting with them next week. There are no conservation areas in Immingham and the 'tin houses' are not listed buildings. If after reading the report there are any amendments please e-mail them to Rick. (rick@cert.demon.co.uk) Post Offices - check with Humber Numbers that all Post Offices are being listed i.e. villages and North Lincs Parishes. The group thought that this document needs to be accurate to give a feel about the area. Also peoples views need to be reflected not the views of the committee. Mary stated that it would carry weight if the feelings of the community were taken into account.	Information Information Information Information Rick Information Information
