At AIC we always focus on
adding value for our members.
Sometimes these benefits are not
immediately apparent.
This year one issue stands out -
the Campaign for the Farmed
Environment. I do not believe we
have a single member who will not
derive some financial gain from this.
AIC joined forces with other key
organisations. It was a hard fight, but
we won a voluntary scheme
seeking around 1% of English
farmland out of production rather
than 8%.
AICTreasurer JamesWallace
commented: "This will pay your
AIC subscriptions for some years."
Sector by sector there are many
other examples that demonstrate
how we add value for
our members.
In taking pride in this report, I pay
tribute to effective action by my
colleagues as well as the unstinting
input of many member companies
and individuals.
