The General Assembly is presided over by the Chairman and is composed of representatives of full members (see art. 3) who are in compliance with statutory obligations and have paid the previous year’s membership fees; a payment which must be made and completed in the manner laid down by the resolution regarding dues. The Ordinary General Assembly meets regularly once a year prior to 30 June to approve the annual budget and membership fees, and to perform any other organisational duties including amendments to the Articles of Association and, if necessary, adopting a resolution to dissolve.
