TSF asks Questions to ECU Management

Dear Friends,

By respecting democracy, and freedom of speech, taking under consideration that we have finished the half term of ECU mandate, we ask officially attached questions to ECU Board, Treasurer, and auditor.

We will be happy if all those questions answered in Istanbul GA. Clearly answers of those questions may be predecessor of some other actions.

Best regards,

Ali Nihat YAZICI

President of TSF

ECU GA Delegate

Dear President of ECU, Board Members, Treasurer and Auditor,

 
We have reached half term and as an active member of ECU, we wonder if you would mind answering the following questions, which will be distributed to all member federations before the ECU GA in Istanbul:

1.     Did the ECU manage to find any NEW sponsorship in 2011 and 2012?

If yes, what is the amount of such sponsorship?

2.     Although in Istanbul the ECU Board will be discharged for 2011, in the Porto Carras GA, ECU management asked for new staff salaries and promised sponsorship. Did the ECU raise even a single cent in sponsorship this year?

3.     In Porto Carras General Assembly, during the ECU President’s presentation, he said that €100.000 had been raised for the chess in school program of the ECU. Where is this money and for what has it been or will be used? Are there any contracts covering this?

4.     Did the ECU pay anything to, or costs for Mr.Garry Kasparov for chess in school promotion. If yes, how much and may we get the list of expenses? Again, if yes, is there a board decision or contract to pay those amounts to Mr.Kasparov?

5.     We see it as an entirely good development in ECU that Mr.Topalov, ex-World Champion and great legend, visits federations with the President and promotes chess. Who covered all those expenses of GM Topalov, and if ECU did (either all or in part), is there any stipend?

6.     Did ECU spend any financial resource for PR/Marketing? If Yes, which products or services have been purchased and through which sources?

7.     According to GA decision in Porto Carras, there would be a budget for small nations in Europe. Has anything been paid out for this? If yes, how much, to which federations and for what purposes? If not, why not?

8.     What about the financial impact of the new chess projects that Mr.Danailov was/is promoting, such as the Club for Journalists?


We kindly ask the Treasurer and Auditor to provide answers to all those questions, separately and with appropriate relevant documentations

Best regards,

Ali Nihat YAZICI
