Having taken a collection at their Annual Dinner Dance last month which totalled £292.00 the outgoing Com-- mittee tabled a Motion for the A.G.M. that a substantial contribution be made " to the Benevolent Fund". That Motion was unanimously carried at the A.G.M. with recommendation that a total sum of £1,000.00 be sent. Agricultural Loss Assessment Specialist Loss Assessment in all types of Agriculture-related Cases.

When paying tribute to the contribution of the Irish delegation I would include under that heading the group who attended from the recently formed Northern Ireland Young Solicitors Association and also the staff of the Hydro Hotel. The latter appeared to be almost entirely Irish and their quality of service and unfailing cheerful- ness was remarkable despite going, like their guests, for days with little or no sleep. All in all this first conference of its kind proved a most interesting and enjoyable experience both from an educational and social point of view. If the mood expressed by the returning Irish delegates is anything to go by you should watch for the notice next August and had better book early for the 1986 conference which is being planned to take place in Scotland, next October!
