Hi Maxine
In order to be fully informed as to the budget status, can we please have all the budget entries up to date this week and forwarded to the EC members. As you know, at the AGM last week the entries were not completed or up to date by STM, which is probably the issue now. Since the issue is part of STM admin problems, let's get them up to date this week. We can then make our recommendations to you after the meeting next Monday night
Many thanks
ROB
