   Holmes implying that consultant might be biased - #UNA report on compensation to be arms lenght.

   Holmes also speaks to question of Directors' compensation. Suggests needs wider discussion. [for the record I don't support increased pay to Directors. I also do not agree with any system that would allocate more pay to directors that has the directors who benefit in anyway making the decision or even the recommendation.]

   Erica Frank reminds the #UNA board that every dollar spent of tax dollars is an ideological act. Hmm. Not sure I agree. [Is it 'ideological' to spend money to fulfill a commitment or promise?  Also, one might question what was meant when the director used the term 'ideological']
