The moral of the story... By the way, they bring him out during meetings of the board at University College London. And the minutes record him as present but not voting.
The reason is that Duster discarded the meeting records among a pile of files after the meeting. Other people also dismissed the matter from their minds.
After the meeting she should type the minutes up, and then keep proper records of the business transacted and the resolutions passed and also implement many of the decision reached at the meeting.
