1) Final financial settlement during preparation period
Final financial settlement during preparation period was a matter of the utmost concern to Executive Council members participating in the Meeting. The report on final financial settlement during preparation period was not approved by the first session of Executive Council Meeting on June 26 owing to the reason that expenses for Establishment Meeting on June 5 had exceeded the budget.
The Secretariat reported the result of above-mentioned problems. The planning budget of the meeting was 275,824 Yuan, but the actual was 387,430 Yuan, and the part overspending was undertaken by Jiuhan Tiancheng Company after consultation with it. The Meeting expressed appreciation to Jiuhan Tiancheng Company for its support, encouraged undertakers elected by way of competitive bidding to undertake all expenses of various SEE meetings to be held in future, and proposed that members in support of the association should be recorded and commended. The meeting suggested that as a platform for member recruitment, each session of Executive Council meetings should strive to enlarge SEE’s influence aiming at a rapid development of SEE in the near future.
The Meeting has passed SEE’s report on final financial settlement during preparation period.
