[Community-Discuss] Closed members and recovered resources

[Andrew Alston]

Hi Sunday,

Ok – now we have a problem – let me quote what you said:


"This report is intended solely for the information and use of the audit
committee and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone
other than these specified parties."
Now, let me quote from the bylaws:

7.6 The Registered Members and Resource Members shall, at Annual General Members' Meetings or by way of written resolutions, in addition to the rights conferred by Articles 7.1 and 7.2, have the right to:
(ii) receive any auditor's report;

So – what we have is something that SPECIFICALLY calls itself a report – and is from the auditors.
Then – we have a clause in the bylaws that says *ANY* auditors report – NOT the financial audit report – not annual report - *ANY AUDITORS REPORT*

As such – by my reading of this – the board is now in violation of the bylaws – clearly – and without apology – in violation of that clause.  Are you SURE this is the stance that the AfriNIC board wants to take?

Andrew

Dear Community members,

The Board has confirmed from the auditors that the Management letter is not part of the Audit Report.

The cover note of the Management letter indeed has a part that reads ....

"This report is intended solely for the information and use of the audit
committee and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone
other than these specified parties."

Because of this, we can't and should not share the management letter.

I hope this clears the matter.

Best Regards ...

Sunday Folayan.

Chair, AFRINIC Board

The Auditor's Report is already published along with the Financial Statements. The Board believes that the Management letter is a confidential document.

Why would the management letter be . Confidential????
