 3. LhARA and the ITRF: alignment and preparations for October start: KL, CW \\
+ - Working on preparation of costing and JeS.  STFC have confirmed that proposal is under the usual costing rules, i.e. 80% of total FEC is cost to STFC.  CW has set deadlien of end of this week for costing info.  Still time in hand for October start, but, slipping on our own deadlines.
+ - Revision 1 of proposal issued (on WWW site etc.).  Handing of working margin (10%), contingency (20%) and inflation had a bug in the cost overview table.  This is now fixed.
 
 4. Issues for IB 28Jul22: TG, YP \\
+ - Principal point is the preparation of the collaboration MoU.  Agreed to propose a 2-month schedule.  Comments for next IB, "sign off" at the following IB.
+ - We recognised the need for a more formal collaboration agreement with agreed contributions and institute sign off.  We agreed to propose at tomorrow's IB that this be preapared on the 18 month time scale so that it is ready when the next, more significant, proposal is prepared.
