Appendix A
Rationale for 3.1
i/ The organisers have the responsibility for the full event. They are
not just taking a turn on the duty desk following a rota. Anyone who
was doing that would have a smaller rebate as in other years.
ii/ The organisers are on duty for at least 8 hours each day. You may see
one or two at an activity or presentation during their duty hours but
you won't see them at the majority of them. Outside of their eight
hours of duty they can participate freely but still there is an
understanding that if there is an urgent problem they will respond.
iii/ Sometimes organisers need to discuss things without warning. All
organisers whether on duty or not are expected to attend the meeting if
they can be found.
iv/ The £100 they pay is to cover their food.
