On Monday 9th March 2026 The Most Excellent Grand Superintendent, E.Comp. Paul Raymond Clement, accompanied by his Provincial Escort, was on duty overseeing the Installation Convocation at Hamlet of Van Chapter No. 8334, Caerphilly.
An excellent ceremony ensued, with special praise to E.Comp. Kevin James, the Immediate Past Zerubbabel, who performed his duties in a superb and calm manner throughout the ceremony.

Congratulations are extended to the newly installed Principals:
- E.Comp. Jason Williams – First Principal
- E.Comp. David Keith Lewis – Second Principal
- E.Comp. Ian Markey – Third Principal.
The Chapter was further honoured by the presence of the Deputy Grand Superintendent, E.Comp. Martyn P. Wake, whose attendance added significantly to an already glittering array of Supreme and Provincial Grand Chapter Officers.
A large gathering of Companions made for an electric Festive Board, full of laughter and companionship, truly typifying Chapter meetings here in South Wales.
