The Treasurer's report was delivered to the meeting and will be published in the NZMS Newsletter. It was moved (Kalnins/Halford) that the report be approved. The motion was carried.
Points to note:
(i) There were a few minor corrections to the financial statements of the NZMS.
(ii) There was a significant decline in revenue from book sales. Suggestions for new books would be welcomed.
(iii) The Incoming Council would consider the book agreement with NZAMT.
5. MEMBERSHIP REPORT:
A report from the Membership Secretary, Dr John Shanks, was circulated. It was moved (McCaughan/Wake) that the report be approved. The motion was passed.
6. ELECTION OF THREE COUNCIL MEMBERS AND INCOMING VICE-PRESIDENT:
(a) Previously received nominations for the three vacancies on Council were Dr Rick Beatson and Dr Vivien Kirk. A late nomination of Dr Robert McLachlan was accepted. It was then moved (Butcher/Goldblatt) that nominations be closed. The motion was passed. As the number of nominations did not exceed the number of vacancies, the Chair declared these three persons elected to Council. This was greeted with acclamation.
(b) The only nomination received for Incoming Vice-President was that of Professor Rob Goldblatt. In the absence of other nominations from the floor, the Chair declared Professor Goldblatt to be elected. This was greeted with acclamation.
7. ACCREDITATION:

(b) It was moved (Conder/McGuinness) that the motion be put.
Points raised in the discussion:
(i) A few minor changes to the wording of the constitutional change were suggested. The labels (a), (b), and (c), in the first paragraph of the proposed Article IV were replaced by (1), (2), and (3),respectively. Also, there was rewording so that the phrase "an area of mathematics"' was replaced by "mathematics".
(ii) The NZMS Council had suggested some changes to Rule 2(a). The last sentence in Rule 2(a) was to be amended to read "The initial Accreditation Committee shall consist of three Members of the Society who are Professors, Honorary Life Members, or Fellows of RSNZ, appointed for a period determined by Council". Also, the sentence "The members of the initial Accreditation Committee shall be invited to become Fellows without fee" was to be added to Rule 2(a).
(iii) The President would contact the three people whom it wished to form the Interim Accreditation Committee.
(iv) Other Professor bodies had similar accreditation schemes.
The vote was 26 for and 3 against the amendments to the NZMS constitution.
8. NEW ZEALAND JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS:
Professor John Butcher presented the report of the NZJM. It was moved from the Chair that the report be approved. The motion was passed.
Point to note: Suggestions for improving the financial position of the Journal were: sponsors, expansion of the circulation base, subscription increases, ask authors of accepted papers to get their libraries to subscribe, exchange programmes, an electronic version of the Journal, optional page charges, and an endowment scheme.
9. RSNZ AND NZQA MATTERS:
(a) Professor Graeme Wake gave a verbal report on RSNZ matters. This included the role of the RSNZ, its restructuring (for which the legislation still has to be enacted), and its administration of the Marsden Fund.
(b) Professor Graeme Wake gave a verbal report on NZQA matters. The Mathematics Advisory Groups were being wound down as the NZQA thought that their work had been done. National Standard Bodies were to be established for which members would be appointed, not elected.
10. THE MORST KNOWLEDGE BASE:
Professor Marston Conder gave a verbal report on the MORST knowledge base. There were ten coordinators from different areas of science. Professor Conder was the coordinator for the mathematical sciences. He had got together a number of people in different areas of mathematics who were in the process of writing reports for the project. These reports were to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the different areas of mathematical sciences in New Zealand.
11. 1997 MATHEMATICS COLLOQUIUM:
The 1997 Colloquium will be held at the University of Auckland on 7-11 July. This will be a joint meeting with the Australian Mathematical Society. The NZ Statistical Association intended to be involved with the Colloquium. Professor Gaven Martin is the Director of the 1997 Colloquium.
Note: At the Colloquium business meeting, Victoria University of Wellington offered to host the 1998 Mathematics Colloquium. This offer was accepted.
12. WWW PAGE OF EMAIL ADDRESSES:
(a) Professor David Gauld outlined discussions with American Mathematical Society officials concerning closer links between the AMS and NZMS. One suggestion was for a link from the appropriate AMS Web page to the NZMS home Web page. It would be useful for there to be a NZMS Web page containing a list of email addresses of NZMS members.
(b) A list of email addresses of NZMS members was to be put together. The email addresses would be obtained from Web pages that were already publicly available.
(c) It was suggested that a forms page be set up so that NZMS members could make their email addresses available if they were not available. They would also be able to request a link to their own home pages. Dr David McIntyre would be able to help with such a forms page.
13. GENERAL BUSINESS:
Professor Marston Conder informed members about the 1997 Tolaga Bay Mathematics Summer Workshop and an information sheet was distributed.
The meeting closed at 6.17 p.m.

MINUTES OF THE THIRTY-NINTH COUNCIL MEETING SUNDAY 30 JUNE, 1996.
The meeting was held at Massey University in Palmerston North and began at 12 noon.
PRESENT: D. Bridges (Chair), M. Conder, M. Hendy, S. Joe, E. Kalnins, D. McCaughan, M. McGuinness, and M. Roberts.
APOLOGIES: R. Beatson.
1. Minutes of 38th Council meeting:
These were approved.
2. Matters arising from the minutes:
(a) A draft itinerary and budget for the 1996 NZMS Visiting Lecturer, Professor Valerie Isham, was received from Dr Mick Roberts. A copy of her CV was also received. A grant of $1200 plus GST has been awarded from the Lottery Board.
It was moved (Roberts/McGuinness) that the NZMS contribute $1500 to Professor Isham's costs. The motion was passed.
Noted in discussion:
Thanks were due to Dr Mick Roberts for arranging financial support for Professor Isham's visit.
The amount of $NZ1500 from the NZMS was not to be perceived as setting a precedent for financial support for future NZMS Visiting Lecturers. The amount given was higher this year because of the higher than normal travel costs involved.
Professor Isham's visit should also be of interest to statisticians.
(b) Though nominations for the 1997 NZMS Visiting Lectureship had been called for in the April 1996 issue of the Newsletter, none had been received. This matter would be brought up at the AGM.
(c) The British Council had been requested to make a financial contribution to the 1997 visit of the Forder lecturer, Professor Ian Stewart, but were unable to do so at the current time because of budgetary constraints. The British Council was attempting to enhance the budget, and might be able to provide some financial assistance if this occurred. This information needed to be communicated to Dr Rick Beatson, the coordinator for Professor Stewart's visit. If no financial support was forthcoming from the British Council, then the London Mathematical Society would be approached. Professor Stewart would probably visit in April 1997.
(d) The issue of the funding of mathematics was in abeyance. The Chief Scientist, Professor Don McGregor, had been asked to consider a review of mathematics, similar to the one recently completed in Australia. MORST was apparently going to undertake a special project on mathematical sciences in 1997.
(e) The MORST knowledge-base project was raised. It had been realised that funding from PGSF was driven by socio-economic considerations with which the scientific community was not generally happy. The MORST knowledge-base project allowed perspectives from the scientific community as an alternative to those from Treasury. There were ten coordinators from different areas of science. Professor Marston Conder was the coordinator for the mathematical sciences.
He had got together a number of people in different areas of mathematics who were in the process of writing reports for the project. These reports were to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the different areas of mathematical sciences in New Zealand.
(f) Professor Douglas Bridges and Professor Derek Holton were involved in the preparation of enrichment material targeted at the top 25% of fourth formers. Some teachers were keen for input from professional mathematicians. Further information about this interaction with schools is available in the 1995-1996 President's Report.
The NZ branch of ANZIAM was also keen to raise the profile of mathematics in schools. The Presidents of NZMS and ANZIAM (NZ Branch) were to liaise on the matter. It was not clear what needed to be done to raise the profile of mathematics.
3. Membership Secretary's report:
A report from Dr John Shanks was received. The number of members in arrears with their subscriptions was noted. Some action needed to be taken to recover these subscriptions. It was suggested that the President write to such members informing them of the work that the NZMS does. It was also suggested that HODs might be approached to get some support for NZMS.
4. Treasurer's report:
(a) A report from the Treasurer along with a budget and audited accounts were received. Overall, the 1995 financial year was a tighter year with a smaller surplus than in 1994. Interest income was down as was proceeds from sales of books. However, it was noted that rising interest rates will probably mean increased interest income in the 1996 year.
(b) The budget allocation in 1996 for the NZMS Visiting Lecturer was increased from $750 to $1500 while the allocation for conference travel for postgraduate student was reduced from $1500 to $750.
(c) The initiative for scholarship money by Dr Robert McLachlan and others was moving slowly. The President of the Operational Research Society, Dr Andy Philpott, still needed to be approached.
(d) As the NZMS subscription covered the running costs of the Society, it was moved from the Chair that it be recommended to the AGM that there be no increase in the NZMS subscription rate.
(e) The declining revenue from book sales probably meant that it was time to consider whether to produce another book. The Maths/Calculus books were no longer being sold. The President was to write to members of the Society asking for suggestions for another book.
(f) The NZMS wished to record its thanks to the retiring Treasurer for his sterling work.
5. Requests for financial assistance:
The following grants were approved:
Chris Stephens $500 CDMTCS $250
Irene Pestov $250 Mark McGuinness $500
Sharleen Forbes $250
Other applications were declined.
Noted in discussion: In previous years the budget for grants had been exceeded.
6. Accreditation:
(a) Professor Marston Conder was to present the accreditation proposal at the AGM.
(b) To be consistent with the current form of the Constitution, it was suggested that (a), (b), and (c), in the first paragraph of the proposed Article IV be replaced by (1), (2), and (3). Alternatively, this labelling could be removed.
(c) A few amendments to the Rules were agreed to. The last sentence in Rule 2(a) was to be amended to read "The initial Accreditation Committee shall consist of three Members of the Society who are Professors, Honorary Life Members, or Fellows of RSNZ, appointed for a period determined by Council.". Also, the sentence "The members of the initial Accreditation Committee shall be invited to become Fellows without fee" to be added to Rule 2(a).
(d) It was agreed that the interim Accreditation Committee would be appointed until 31 December 1997.
7. Nominations to Council for 1996:
(a) Nominations for Council of Dr Rick Beatson and Dr Vivien Kirk had been received. This was not enough to fill the vacancies on Council. Nominations would be called from the floor at the AGM. Professor Rob Goldblatt had been nominated as Incoming Vice-President.
(b) A decision on the new Treasurer will be made after the AGM.
8 1997 Mathematics Colloquium:
(a) The 1997 Colloquium will be held at the University of Auckland on 7-11 July. This will be a joint meeting with the Australian Mathematical Society. The NZ Statistical Association wished to be involved with the Colloquium. The Colloquium will precede the International Mathematical Physics conference in Brisbane.
(b) Professor Gaven Martin was the Director of the 1997 Colloquium. An impressive list of invited speakers was being constructed.
(c) The 1998 Colloquium will probably be held in the Victoria University of Wellington.
9 NZ Journal of Mathematics:
(a) The report from Professor John Butcher was received.
(b) There should be more institutional subscriptions to the journal.
(c) The council agreed to give $1000 to the Journal. Noted in discussion:
The NZMS agreement with the NZJM involved a commitment of $5000 over three years. This commitment had already been fulfilled. Grants to the Journal would not necessarily be a regular annual commitment.
The NZMS supported the Journal through membership of the Editorial Board, subscriptions from NZMS members, and direct grants.
10. Change to by-laws:
The proposed changes to the by-laws by Dr Stephen Joe were adopted. These would be publicised in the August 1996 Newsletter.
11. WWW page of email addresses:
(a) A list of email addresses of NZMS members was to be put together. The email addresses would be obtained from Web pages that were already publicly available.
(b) Dr John Shanks was to be contacted to see whether it was possible to get other email addresses and to obtain permission to make them available.
(c) The issue of commercial links from the NZMS Web pages was raised after a request from the Internet Book Shop. The Council decided to allow commercial links, but at a cost of $500 for a period of one year, after which the matter would be reviewed. The Secretary would email a draft letter to Council members. Other requests were to be processed in a similar manner.
12. NZMS Research Award 1996:
There were five candidates and two awards were to be presented at the Colloquium dinner.
13. Draft unit standards:
The paper from the Victoria University of Wellington was received. The report from Professor Derek Holton on the NZQA Mathematics Advisory Group was also received. Matters concerning the NZQA would be raised at the AGM.
14. Aitken judging panel:
The panel would consist of Professor Marston Conder, Professor Mike Hendy, and Professor Ernie Kalnins. There were twelve talks registered for the Aitken prize. The judges would have meetings on Tuesday and Wednesday of the Colloquium to decide on a prize winner.
15. Pacific Institute of Mathematical Sciences (PIMS):
The aim of PIMS was to facilitate communications between organisations involved in the mathematical sciences. Areas of collaboration were mentioned in the email message from Dr Bob Russell of Simon Fraser University. PIMS was a separate body from the Canadian Mathematical Society. It was suggested that a representative of PIMS might like to attend the 1997 Colloquium. The Department of Mathematics at the University of Auckland had already written a letter of support for PIMS. The President of the NZMS would write a similar letter of support.
16. Nominations for Fellowship of RSNZ:
Nominations for Fellowship of RSNZ could go through the current Fellows or through the NZMS. For 1997 it was agreed that the August 1996 issue of the Newsletter would call for suggestions for Fellowship of the RSNZ. These suggestions should consist of a short CV (containing at least a list of publications), suitable referees, and a letter of support. The suggestions would be considered by Council.
17. General business:
(a) A draft president's report and draft AGM agenda were circulated for feedback.
(b) A coordinated push for increased university funding for the mathematical sciences was seen to be more desirable than separate pushes by some subjects. A more graduated scale of funding for the different cost categories would probably be beneficial.
(c) The retiring members of Council, Dr Rick Beatson, Professor Marston Conder, Professor Ernie Kalnins, and Dr Mark McGuinness were thanked for their services.
(d) A paper seeking proposals for programme topics at the Issac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences was received from Dr Mick Roberts.
(e) An information sheet about the 1997 Tolaga Bay Mathematics Summer Workshop was received from Professor Marston Conder.
The meeting closed at 4.21 p.m.

ANZIAM (New Zealand Branch) Notes
Introducing ANZIAM
Australia-New Zealand Industrial and Applied Mathematics (ANZIAM) is a division of the Australian Mathematical Society (AustMS), and the New Zealand Branch was established in 1992 as a sub-division of the NZMS to represent the interests of industrial and applied mathematicians in this country. ANZIAM has a worldwide web page at:
http://solution.maths.unsw.edu.au/htdocs.ams/Anziam/anziam.html
Membership of ANZIAM is for those who wish to keep abreast of industrial and applied mathematics in Australasia and to maintain contact with the practitioners thereof. The current membership of ANZIAM stands at around 550 and of ANZIAM (NZ) at 41. Membership is available to interested persons who are already members of NZMS or AustMS for a fee of NZ$10. Contact the treasurer: Adrian Swift, Department of Mathematics, Massey University, Private Bag 11222, Palmerston North, A.Swift@massey.ac.nz.
A pamphlet introducing ANZIAM in more detail is also available from the treasurer.
AGM 30 July 1996
The annual general meeting of ANZIAM (NZ Branch) was held on the evening of 30 June 1996, at the opening of the 1996 Maths Colloquium. At the meeting, the following committee was elected for the following 12 months: Continuing: Mark McGuinness (Chair, Victoria), John Burnell (Secretary, IRL), Adrian Swift (Treasurer, Massey), Graeme Wake (Auckland), John Harper (Victoria), Rick Beatson (Canterbury). New: Simon Woodward (Publicity, AgResearch), Vivien Kirk (Auckland).
Coming Meetings
Following the success of the ANZIAM '96 conference in Masterton in February, three further New Zealand meetings are being planned in by ANZIAM (NZ):
1) Mathematics-in-Industry Study Group. ANZIAM (NZ) plans to hold a MISG-style meeting in New Zealand during 1997 following the format that has been so successfully held in Melbourne over the last few years. This will invite industry to present current problems, which will then be tackled intensively by attending mathematicians over a couple of days. Reports are usually published, and contracts for further research may follow.
2) Geothermal Workshop. ANZIAM plans to hold a workshop in Geothermal modelling, likely to be adjacent to one of the upcoming Geothermal Conferences in New Zealand.
3) Mathematical Biology Workshop. The timing and details of this are yet to be worked out.
Other upcoming meetings of interest are:
4) The 33rd ANZIAM Applied Mathematics Conference (ANZIAM '97). This conference will be held in Lorne, Victoria from 2-6 February 1997. Further information is available from ANZIAM '97, School of Computing and Mathematics, Deakin University, Geelong, Victoria 3217, Australia, Email amc97@deakin.edu.au.
5) ICIAM 2003. As mentioned elsewhere in this newsletter, ANZIAM will have the honour of hosting the Fifth International Congress on Industrial and Applied Mathematics in 2003, at Darling Harbour in Sydney. This is a major quadrennial congress with expected attendance in the order of 2000 delegates.
6) MISG 1997. Pamphlets for the 1997 Mathematics-in-Industry Study Group, 27-31 January 1997, University of Melbourne, are available from MISG 1997, Department of Mathematics, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Victoria 3052, Australia, Tel +613 9344 6762, Fax +613 9344 4599, Email
