After the relevant dispensation's were read Excellent Companion Robert Fernyhough, Excellent Companion Michael Bunn, an Excellent Companion James Cooper were proclaimed by the Deputy Provincial Grand Director of Ceremonies, Excellent Companion Paul Webber as the three principles of the chapter for the ensuing year.
Four companions of the chapter were present together with magnificent support from provincial officers both past and present.
