The IRF will be holding its 2015 Congress at the location and time of the World Rafting Champs in Sukabumi, Indonesia (29 Nov - 8 Dec).
The Congress will extend over 2 meetings. The exact dates will be confirmed once the detailed schedule has been finalised but they will be some time between the 29 Nov and 8 Dec.
BOD and committees that want to meet will have meetings as well.These meetings will be to talk about what has been done, what needs to be done and any proposals affecting them.
The draft agenda for the Congress itself is (possibly not in this exact order):
- Opening.
- Apologies and establishment of delegates and the quorum.
- Reports on Membership applications.
- Report by President.
- Report by the Secretary.
- Financial report for approval.
- Budget for approval.
- Reports from heads of other Committees
- Discussions and resolutions on proposals submitted by National Federations and the Board of Directors.
- Election of office bearers.
- Closing of Congress.
After Congress committees may have more meetings if they feel they are necessary.
Member Federations are reminded that any motions they would like to be heard must reach the Secretary no later than 5 weeks before the Congress so that they can be included in the agenda. Ideally send it in even earlier incase there are any isues with the proposal.
Candidates for any committees need to send a photo and a CV in covering why they would like to be on that committee. The sooner this is done the better, but it must be done no later than the 31st October.
