Microphones
should
be
switched
on
when
you're
invited
to
speak
and
switched
off.
When
you
have
finished
speaking,
this
is
important
as
it
helps
to
ensure
the
quality
of
the
audio
for
all
present.
Please
use
the
raise
hand
button
to
indicate
that
you
wish

speak
and
load

When
you
have
finished
speaking,
officers
should
introduce
themselves
by
confirming
their
name
and
rule
before
speaking,
for
the
first
time
on
any
subject,
and
I'm
now
going
to
ask
clark
to
the
committee
to
give
the
local.

Thank
you.
Yes
thank
you
promised
mr
mcdonald
governance
officer.
We've
had
a
request
for
civic
funding
from
the
stirling
wheelchair
curling
club
to
make
a
financial
contribution
from
the
civic
budget
towards
hosting
their
international
event,
which
will
take
place
at
the
peak
on
friday,
the
4th
of
february,
the
teams
that
will
be
invited
along
to
the
event
and
the
lunch
are
winter.
Sorry
they're
preparing
for
the
winter
paralympics,
which
will
be
held
in
march
2022
in
beijing,
and
the
panel
is
asked
to
give
consideration
to
the
request
for
civic
hospitality.
C
It's
not
a
question
province.
It's
just
a
comment
to
say
that
I've
been
to
the
event
like
yourself
in
previous
years,
and
I've
actually
thoroughly
enjoyed
it
and
the
participation
from
from
all
the
other
countries
and
the
skill
that
they
use
is
absolutely
absolutely
brilliant.
And
I'm
all
for
this
and
and
I'd
certainly
would
recommend
that
the
panel
and
give
them
the
required
funds
to
do
this,
because
it's
it's
absolutely
a
wonderful
thing
that
they
do.
D
A
Good,
I
certainly
would
endorse
these
views.
It's
a
very
important
and
very
prestigious
event,
and
it
brings
a
lot
of
people
into
sterling
and
it's
it's
a
national
international
event,
and
we
are
very
we're
lucky
that
we
have
the
the
wonderful
facility
down
at
the
peak
to
be
able
to
host
an
event
of
this
stature.
A
B
Thank
you,
mr
mcdonald,
governance
officer.
This
report
is
provides
details
of
a
suggested,
a
charity
from
the
province
to
receive
funding
from
the
civic
panel
for
the
charity
of
the
year
for
2021.
B
A
D
So
I've
known
the
sterling
school
of
english,
probably
for
15
years,
and
I
think
specifically
at
the
moment
he
does
a
a
great
job
for
helping
people
who
live
either
in
the
stirling
area
or
near
the
sterling
area
who
don't
have
english
as
their
first
language,
and
it's
a
big
input
into
that,
and
specifically
it
helps
those
people.
Who've
who've
come
into
sterling
from
other
countries,
okay,
the
refugees
and
it-
and
it's
a
great
resource
for
that.
So
I
would
like
to
endorse
it.
E
Yep,
thank
you
please.
I
think,
like
council
thomas
I'm
very
happy
to
support
this.
I
think
particularly
the
it's
a
it's
a
charity
which
is
not
in
the
mainstream.
It's
not
one.
You
automatically
think
of
to
foot
when,
when
seeking
to
to
give
support
to
for
charitable
causes,
etc,
and
as
I
said,
particularly
when
stilling
is
opening
its
doors
and
welcoming
refugees,
particularly
from
afghanistan,
etc,
it's
never
a
more
appropriate
time.
E
C
Yes,
it
was
a
lazy
hand
promise,
and
I
apologize
for
that,
but
I
agree
with
my
fellow
panel
members
that
is
a
worthwhile
cause
and-
and
I
fully
fully
support
their
application
and
I
fully
support
the
that
we
give
them
the
grant
that
they
require.
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Well,
I
myself
paid
a
visit
to
the
sterling
school
of
english
and
I
was
very
impressed
by
the
work
that
they
do
not
only
in
actually
teaching,
but
in
supporting
people
who
can
be
very
isolated
and
vulnerable
and
who
struggle
in
the
traditional
classroom,
environment,
and
I
was
very
struck
by
the
dedication
of
the
teachers
who
are
volunteers
and
a
lot
of
them
are
retired
teachers
and
they
create
a
very
supportive
atmosphere,
and
I
think
the
students
are
very
happy
there
and
grateful
for
the
opportunity
that
it
provides.
