\topic{Secretarys Report}

Mark reported the committee and ROs were formally invited to
the UCDRC Christmas party on wednesday. The latest copy of
the NTSA calendar was displayed, with notes on the National
Squad training dates, one of which conflicted with the
Colours match. Moving it to March 16/17 was discussed. It was
agreed to discuss this with UCD at the christmas party.

\task{Steven,John}{Discuss change of date of colours with
UCDRC committee}

\topic{CRO Report}

Liam Murray has missed another RO duty. Alan wondered what we
do now, in regard to disciplinary action. He also wondered if
he should include Liam on next terms rota. Steven said to
talk to him first, to send an email explaining the problem.

\task{Alan}{Talk to Liam regarding RO duties}

Alan reported on looking for the interlock for the keys. He
found most switches very expensive. Mark suggested a homebrew
solution, but this was thought too difficult. The model Alan
had found was the type used in hotels for operating lights,
and it was felt this was too easily breakable. A more
industrial keyswitch is needed. Alan will source this. Mark
suggested Farnell. John thought two were needed, one for .22
and one for air rifle. A discussion and field trip ensued and
it was decided only one was needed, with the general
illumination lights inside the range door being the point for
the keyswitch. 

\task{Alan}{Source and price hardware for keyswitch}

\topic{A\&E Report}

John reported we have 10000 more Finale Match pellets.

John also reported that Rifle V was back, but Rifle S was
more badly damaged than previously thought, as it's cylinder
was out of commission. Dave Cooney has estimated
\pounds130-140 for repairs. Mark complained about the general
state of the air rifles. John will inspect them.

\task{John}{Inspect Air Rifles}

Mark pointed out that the original problem with V - the
action not automatically opening during the charging cycle -
was still happening, and was now happening on T as well. All
were most unhappy that this had not been fixed by Dave.
Steven felt that we couldn't expect it to be repaired as we
didn't specify a general service when handing over the rifle.
Noone present felt that justified not repairing the fault. 

Mark repeated his complain about the general state of the
rifles. A cleaning day was agreed on, and scheduled for next
tuesday, December 11. John suggested bringing all the ROs as
a training exercise. Mark thought some would get bored as
they weren't experienced enough to help. Steven suggested
announcing it and any interested would come. Alan suggested
that if cleaning didn't help the actions to open that we send
the rifles for servicing to Dave. 

\topic{RRPC Invitational shoot}

Mark announced that after some diplomacy, Steven was now
invited to attend the RRPC turkey shoot. Steven then said he
couldn't make it. Mark was flummexxed. 

A departure time from the range was mentioned, with John
requesting it be as late as possible. No time was set
however.

\topic{Pinks}

Steven read out the proposed revised Pinks qualifications.
After some discussion, they were accepted. Alan noted that
the number of colours awarded each year should not depend on
how many scarves we had in inventory. 

\topic{Risk Assessment Document}

John reported that DUCAC wanted this within the week. He
stressed that the document could assist us in getting funding
to pay for needed measures, like first aid training for ROs.
It was decided to prepare this document here and this was
done. 

\task{Mark}{Type up Risk assessment document}

\topic{DURC Clothing}

All were in favour of getting more non-shooting club
clothing. John knows of a contact for T-shirts, so does
Steven. Steven's plan is that Beamish will give us T-shirts
with their logo, we get them embroidered and sell them on. 
This gives us club T-shirts for a minimum outlay. 

Mark pointed out that he wanted to get decent gear as well,
and this was generally agreed on. All four present were to
contact other clubs and find out their arrangements and
costs.

\task{Mark,John,Alan,Steven}{Find out about other club's
arrangements for club clothing}

\topic{AOB}

\subtopic{Fundraiser}

Alan wanted to run a Pub Quiz as a club fundraiser. John
suggested using the Pav and getting Guinness sponsorship.
Steven recommended talking to Liam as he was running one at
present. Mark wondered if Guinness would give Tshirts, Alan
wondered if they'd give beer. John explained the convoluted
approach to guinness sponsorship in college at present. It
was agreed John would attemt to secure beer for this event.

\task{John}{Arrange guinness beer for quiz}
\task{Alan}{General logistics for quiz}

\subtopic{Sports Campinile magazine}

This new newsletter from DUCAC was raised by Steven. Mark and
John had heard about it, but too late to do anything for it.
John said only high-profile stuff should go into it. Mark had
a strong objection to the idea of not trying continously to
get articles into any kind of press. Steven agreed to hold a
review before each issue where possible, to select items for
publication, if any were available.

\task{Steven}{Hold review in feburary for articles}

\subtopic{British Universities Top XX}

Steven had been on the phone to BUSA and the NSRA. The Top XX
is now run by BUSA with technical support only from the NSRA,
and BUSA were only sending entry forms to affiliated
universities. As we're not affiliated we won't be able to
enter. John felt it wasn't a big deal to get TCD to
affiliate, and agreed to bring it up at the next DUCAC
meeting. 

\task{John}{Discuss BUSA affiliation at next DUCAC meeting}

\subtopic{World University Games}

Steven also reported that the NSRA and BUSA were disagreeing
over this - BUSA didn't want to send a UK team, the NSRA did.
This will be resolved in a few weeks. Steven though, is
ineligible to represent Ireland.

\subtopic{DURC 10m CAR}

Mark handed round the CAR for the DURC 10m Air Open.

\subtopic{UCESSA}

Mark reported Dave Gallagher had missed his second round and
was now disqualified and owed us his entry fee. Mark felt
this should be charged seperately for disciplinary reasons
(as this was the original reasoning). John felt it should
just be put on his RO credits, but was overruled.

Mark reminded everyone that the next round was due on Dec 17.

Mark reported that Alan and Shane Kelly had not submitted
cards for the Air Rifle postal. Alan protested, as he had
shot his cards at the DURC Open. Mark said he had told Alan
that the cards were lost and as such had to be reshot, that
thre people (Alan, Mark and Liam Murray) had been caught by
this and two had reshot. 

Mark reminded everyone that the next round was due early next
year and they had christmas off.

\subtopic{NSRA Postals}

Mark went through the NSRA postal competitions and took some
details for people shooting. No teams were felt to be viable
due to the low number of shooters except in 10m air rifle.
Mark and Steven will shoot on a team with one other (yet to
be selected). Mark and Steven will also shoot 3P 25yard, and
will order their own targets to do so. John and alan will
also do the 25yard prone postal.
Mark will continue to recruit.

\subtopic{DURC 10m Shield engraving}

Steven agreed to get the Simon Kennedy Shield engraved for
Nicola. 

\task{Steven}{Engraving on Air Rifle Shield}

\subtopic{Club Ties}

The club ties idea was discussed, but it was reluctantly
agreed that we can't afford them just yet (\pounds300 is too
much when we can't yet afford to buy ammo in bulk).
