Report about the general assembly 2006
|
|
On Saturday August 19th 2006, our annual general assembly took place in the
Cafe of the Körnerhalle in Schwechat near Vienna. A lot of members accepted the
invitation and after the welcome of the members and the statement of the quorum Mr.
Harald Michal and Mrs. Christine Feldberger, were confirmed as scrutinizers unanimously.
The approval of the agenda of the current assembly and the minutes of the general assembly 2005 passed and afterwards the board gave its reports.
In the
area of exhibitions, the number of exhibited cats raised again in comparisation with the show year 2004.
However there is currently lesser demand than offers for catshows and the future
plans will be adopted accordingly. For 2006 there are currently 8 shows
scheduled.
In the area of the pedigrees, KKÖ issued 2005 even slightly more pedigrees than
2004, which was the largest amount of pedigrees
since his
foundation.
The amount of members increased 2005 slightly.
The president, Mr. Preiss, appreciated his gratitude to all which helped during
the shows, the members of the board, the members of the show commission and to
all which are not in a official function. |

The auditors Mrs. Ioana Negulescu and Mr. Michael Szaraz examined the
books. The auditors recommend to discharge the treasurers Mrs. Christel
Schirrer for the period from
January 1st, 2005 until July 10th 2005 and Mr. Franz Rathbauer from July

Afterwards the proposals were discussed. Only carried
proposals are mentioned here.
The KKÖ Frequent Exhibitor Program was mentioned in several proposals from a
member. The board explained that this program is in use since several years,
however the detailed rules are not mentioned at the KKÖ homepage.
The board stated to recalculate the bonus points for the year 2005 and
inform the respective members as well as to describe the detailed rules at
the KKÖ homepage. The proposals were therefore withdrawn by the member. |
Information about mating rules with stud males without a FIFe pedigree will
be adopted at the KKÖ homepage to fit to the current KKÖ rules for breeding
and health. |
The consulting and support of breeders and members is
currently done with individual meetings. This has to be adopted at the KKÖ homepage
accordingly.. |
The board informed all participants, that starting with
January 1st 2007 all cats which will be used for breeding shall be micro
chipped. This will be necessary due to a rule from our international
organization FIFe.
