There are several things highlighted in this report that we believe require attention for the benefit of field teams that follow us. In outline these are:

• the problems of food box contents. We would suggest a review of the contents and a "clean-out" of over date food items (Section 11.3).
• the provision of an emergency food supply for rapid deployment to the deep field (Section 11.3).
• the problems and inefficiencies with radio communications (Section 12), especially testing of HF radios further from base, the need to develop a compact aerial unit for use on crevassed terrain, and work towards providing compatible frequencies with the US program.
• the need for greater communication between Scott Base operations and McMurdo operations with regard to deep field parties (Section 6.2).
• the possible need for a close examination of the skidoo nose-ski system in order to strengthen the system, thereby reducing the risk of injury (Section 10).
• the advantages of providing boxes for transporting and sheltering generators (Section 11.4), perhaps looking at greater use of solar energy in place of generators.
