      10:29 <ReinhardM> Did the handover passed successfull?
      10:30 <ReinhardM> I wrote by email to all former member of our committe how this handover has to be performed.
      10:31 <ReinhardM> I asked for an answer signed by a digital certificate, that every single board member has to declare if he has to handover document or any assets.
      10:31 <ReinhardM> In case of yes, he should give his conesnt that all documents and assed are handed over.
      10:32 <ReinhardM> The are no document or assets which he refrain to gibe back to the association.
      10:33 <ReinhardM> In case of no, he should give his consent that there are no document or assets which he refrain to gibe back to the association.
      10:33 <ReinhardM> The written answer is necessary for documentation purposes.

      10:40 <ReinhardM> Question to vice president?
      10:41 <jmbruckner> When I was elected in the period 2013/2014 as vice president, no documents have been handed over to me by my predecessor.
      10:41 <jmbruckner> It was obviously not common to conduct a formal handover so far.

      10:57 <ReinhardM> Maybe that our Public Officer knows the data?
      10:58 <ReinhardM> so we have to give the list to our public officer to lodge it with the OFT

  12:13 <ReinhardM> QUESTION: Why is there business handled if it is only a constitutional meeting and questions are forbidden based on this reason?

  12:14 <ReinhardM> (c) has power to perform all such acts and do all such things as appear to the committee to be necessary or desirable for the proper management of the affairs of the association.
  12:15 <ReinhardM> If you want to know more about the obligations of our board please study the act.
