Mr Dunderdale undertook to look into the matter of any outstanding premiums.

Boy Scouts
Group of the Boy Scouts concerning an application from the Masterton Rangers for the use of the Scout Den.

Mr Denbee moved That the request be not granted, which he later amended as follows, in view of the Rangers being granted the free use of a room in the Municipal Buildings (including lighting and cleaning) in which to meet. The Vestry knows of no valid reason for the necessity for a change. If however the Rangers should at any time find themselves without a room in which to hold their meetings The Vestry will only be too pleased to re-consider their application. Seconded by Mr Coleman and Carried.
