At the Special General Meeting held on 5 February 2016, the motion put before the membership was:
Instruct the Council to continue publication of the LMS Journal of Computation and Mathematics as a charitable activity, thus reversing the Council’s decision to close down the Journal.
The motion was not carried. Votes were, 158 against the motion, 131 for the motion, and one abstention.
The President invites suggestions for how the Society might best support the discipline around the interface between mathematics and computation, in the light of these decisions. Such proposals should be sent to the President at President@lms.ac.uk.
