The View from the Chair
The Chartered Institute of Arbitrators North East Branch covers
the Yorkshire and Humberside geographical area and has a membership
of approximately 350 members who form part of a global membership
of approximately 11,000 members, in more than 100 countries
across the world. The Branch year commences at the end of March
and at the Branch AGM that was held at the Chequers Inn, Ledsham,
I was elected as the Chairman of the North East Branch for the
next two years.
In that regard I am indebted to Richard Gibson, a Structural
Engineer by primary profession, who works for the Gibson Design
Consultancy based in Leeds, the outgoing Branch Chairman, for
his tireless contribution and his excellent leadership over
the past two years as Branch Chairman. I also thank Richard
Piper, a Solicitor from Gordons LLP in Leeds, our Branch Secretary
who deals with the administrative functions of the Branch, and
I express my gratitude to him as he continues in that role.
Michael Dunn, a past Chairman and Chartered Quantity Surveyor
of Rex Procter & Partners in Bradford, who has been an active
member of the Branch Committee for a number of years and recently
the Branch Treasurer retired from that position at the AGM.
On behalf of all of the members of the Branch Committee I would
like to thank Michael for his dedication to the role. Michael’s
presence on the Branch Committee will be sorely missed (especially
as he signed the cheques).
