Acknowledgement of Country: Before we begin the meeting, I would like to acknowledge and pay respect to the traditional owners, both past and present, of the land we occupy and upon which we meet — the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. It is also upon their ancestral lands that Alfalfa House is built.

2. Staffing
Discussion of Tuesday's night's staff meeting. Bruce will finalise draft minutes.
3. Finances
About $20,000 outstanding invoices. Sales have calmed down. But April had a lot of public holidays. Tom said that finance reports not updated from those distributed for staff meeting. Paulo has started as Stock Manager. Manly co-op has automated groceries (question produce?) ordering bringing hours spent down to 8 hours per month (to be discussed at Co-ops conference on 21 June). Declan planned to prepare a presentation for the next MC meeting to explain graphically where money is going. Poswise problems discussed. Declan raised possibility of opening for breakfast time. Bruce added Saturday mornings to that idea. Keys and security alarm discussed.
4. Social media
Tom reported an incident where there was a post made apparently contrary to agreed procedures. Difficulty arose when staff deleted the post and it was reposted with further comment. Question about access to AH social media. Needs to be tightly controlled. Declan suggested 1, maybe 2, people with authority. Add as an agenda item to next MC meeting.
