With regard to the draft new articles, your Consulting Committee consider that in the interests of the company, they need bringing up to date. The existing arti- cles have been in force in their presens form since the incorporation of the com- pany in the year 1983 and require vari- ous alterations and additional powers to bring ther into line with the general and usual form of articles now adopted by companies in this Colony. Our solicitors have therefore, in consultation with your" General Managers prepared a new set of articles for the company which has the approval of your consulting committee.
Prints of the existing articles and of the druft new articles have, as indicated in the notice convening this meeting, been open for inspection by shareholders at the Company's registered office, and there are also copies of both the existing and the draft new articles on this table which, if any shareholder desires, he may inspect.
In the circular letter to shareholders | sent out with the notice convening this! mccting, attention was drawn to a nu-motion was carried unanimously.
Mr. WILLIAMSON seconded and the her of changes proposed by the new articles. I need therefore only indicate the most important of the alterations to the existing Articles of Association re

5.-By Article. No. 90 the General Managers' remuneration is the same as that provided by the original agree- meat with them' dated the 24th July, 1983, but the remuneration of local Agents at out-ports is to be paid by the Company pursuant to Articles 90, 115K and 117 instead of by the General Managers as provided by Clause 14 of the Agreement. The General Managers Buggest that this Agents remuneration should be paid by the Company.
