Please note that Annual Reports for the Chilterns Crematorium Joint
Committee are attached separately Minutes: Members considered the sixty second annual report of the Joint Committee. The Superintendent highlighted key points of the report which included but was not limited to, the fact that Slough’s refurbishment works had increased customers at the crematorium for a period. Further, that there had been a change from roses to shrubs (which deer were less likely to eat), as deer had previously caused damage to memorial roses; the decision to move to shrubs had been successful. Past nominated charities were also listed in the report for information. Appendix 1 indicated the crematorium staffing structure as of 31 March 2017, and Appendix 2 detailed the new structure from 1 May 2017. RESOLVED: That the report
