The Consistory was opened by the President, Dist.Comp. Colin Beerling. The Acting Provincial Grand Director of Ceremonies, Em.Comp. Chris Eley, Provincial Grand Recorder, was admitted and advised the President that the Provincial Grand Summus was in the ante room and demanded admission to the Consistory. The Provincial Grand Summus entered through an Arch of Steel and was welcomed by the President.

After the minutes were taken, Bro. Alan Boniface, of Surbiton Conclave No 299, was Obligated, Entrusted and Invested as a Companion of the Order, First Grade, in an excellent manner by Em.Comp. Simon McCarthy, Primus of Ostiarii, ably assisted by R.Dist.Comp. Michael Barnes, Past Provincial Grand Summus, who communicated the signs and words before investing the Candidate.
