Questioning whether there is an intention to make an appointment to post of Youth Officer for the Diocese. Fr Birch feels a youth pilgrimage is something to be encouraged.
manuscript annotation: "At the moment there is no Youth Officer for the Diocese. Fr Philip Shryane is purely "ad hoc" for the Papal visit. I suggest [?] in planning a (national?) Youth Pilgrimage before more thorough consultation has taken place. It is unwise to institutionalise a pilgrimage before some experience is behind us."
