     30 //See slides. // Points noted:
     31  * TG: asked for the ball-park cost of the laser; this was believed to be ~£1M.  TG also asked whether magnetron acceleration might be appropriate.  We agreed it would bed to be discussed with J.~Pasernak.
     32  * SS: Explained that DL had expertise on implementation of appropriate environement and infrastructure having contributed to the development of the siting plan for teh AVO/ADAM linac.  She offered help on the specification and costing.  This was gratefully accepted.

     344. Status of preparation of pre-publication review of LhARA pre-CDR: KL \\
     35 Following consultation with SG, a four-member panel was defined with expertise covering radiobiology, laser-driven source, accelerator and instrumentation/detectors.  Agreed last time and in conversations with individuals that must be seen to be independent.  The persons invited to join the panel were listed.  Those that have accepted are:
     36  * Yolanda Prezado (Inst. Curie, Paris) -- radiobiology (IBC Deputy Spokesperson)
     37  * Paul Bolton (Munich) -- laser source
     38
     395. Furthering national and international links: All \\
     40 * IBC has instituted an Executive Committee.  KL has been invited to attend the first meeting (21Feb19) to represent LhARA.  Meeting will take place in Rome.

     42  * Goal would be to organise the discussion for the Easter vacation.
     43  * TG: reported that he had a seminar in Birmingham on LhARA in the New Year.  An excellent opportunity.  Publications, talks, and public information can be accessed from the CCAP's "[wiki:Communication Communication]" pages.
