ON behalf of the members of the Bolton and District AEEU Retired Members Association, I thank the Bolton Metro Council and the staff in the Town Hall for the excellent way they hosted the North West Pensioners Association Conference.

We were very appreciative of the facilities which were provided for the use of sub-committees and the arrangements for the conference in the Albert Hall, also the excellent buffet which was provided.

Our members were not the only ones which were impressed by the excellent facilities provided, as many members from all over the North-west expressed their appreciation of the arrangements.

We also extend our thanks to the Mayor, Councillor Kevan Helsby, for opening the Conference, also Brian Iddon MP, who addressed the meeting and gave us his support on the subjects we debated and resolved.

Finally, on behalf of all the delegates who attended the conference, we say thank you to the people of Bolton for the use of their magnificent Town Hall.
