the reporter prior to the start of the
meeting that the board would go into
.committee -of -the -whole to receive a report
from the management committee dealing
with personnel matters.
When chairman Mary Vair called for, a
motion to go into committee -of -the -whole,
in camera, however no reason was
specified and the reporter was left sitting
in the hall as the board remainded in closed
session to discuss items ranging from the
slow progress of its building program to
whether or not the public should be
permitted to attend board meetings.
During a part of this session it' met with
both its architect, Lloyd . Kyles, and
builder, 'John Refflinghaus,, to discuss the
building project. In addition, an on ,site
meeting was held the following day.
Contacted Friday, Hayes said the board
had discussed the project with the builder.
"and informed him we're not happy with
the speed he's going."
.He said he still hopes to see the building
closed in before winter weather sets in and
that number of changes have been made
tothe plan, including changes to the roof
design, so that it can be. This would permit
completion by sometime next spring. •
The design changes will not affect the
cost of the building,,. he added.
On the matter of opening board' meet-
ings to the public, whichhad been referred
tothe management committee for a recon-
mendation. Hayes said there had been
discussion but not decision. Ile said the
matter will 'be discussed . further in
committee and at the board.
During the half hour session which
preceded the closed meeting, the board
received several reports' from, members
who had attended seminars at the Ontario
Hospital Association convention in Toronto
or elsewhere. •
Mary Lou Thompson, trustee from Tees -
water, reported on a ' seminar she ' had
attended on the use of computers. She said
that in the case of the 'Wingham hospital
she feels a computer falls into the "nice to
have" category but is not a priority 'item.
She also gave a written and verbal report
on a session, she had attended at the OHA
convention dealing with. improving the
effectiveness of board members and'review
and assessment of chief executive officers.
She said the speaker stressed that board
members must be well informed and
prepared for their meetings. It also was
suggested that consultants can be used to
evaluate theeffectiveness of boards and
their committees. • '
