Institute of Factory Management

The Management Committee meeting, due to be held on 18th December, has perforce had to be postponed until after the journal has gone to press, and will now take place early in January. This is due to the sudden indisposition of Mr. Douglas Anderson, Vice‐Chairman of the Institute and Chairman of the Educational Sub‐Committee. Mr. Anderson is a key figure concerning the matters to be discussed at the meeting, particularly the Institute's Educational programme for 1980. Plans are now in hand so that if by any chance he is still unwell at the time the meeting is now due to be held, his views and all‐important advice on the major items of the agenda will be before Members at the appropriate time.
