Matters for decision<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>Utilization reports for 2016 project grants approved. In 2016, 93 project grants were awarded, and according to the Museums Act, grant recipients are required to submit reports on the use of the grants within two years. The deadline for these reports was May 4th. 83 reports have been submitted. One grant was declined, and an extension was granted for the use of funds on 5 grants. Reports for two grants from one museum have not been submitted; the museum was therefore granted a grace period until the fall. The use of funds for one grant is uncertain; it is currently in process.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>3.
