Agree, and this is very important.

Agreed.

Agreed.

> Suggestion: Until minutes from first meeting are complete, Sam 
> Dickinson should be treated as support staff (together with Theresa,

Agreed.

> Suggestion: Alternative D, i.e. all Members, Liaisons and Support Staff get read/write access to our documents.

Not agreed. I would support alternative A only. 
This suggestion seems inconsistent with your first suggestion.
