after these matters. Fred Campbell told the Forum that the limited company status of IODAI would be reviewed.

Michael explained that IODAI would aim to get to a position of an annual surplus of approx. 12K euro and that a plan for even distribution of this surplus would be required.

An existing surplus of 40K euro would require similar planning for distribution in a manner beneficial to all.

Frank O’Beirne proposed and Aidan Staunton seconded the adoption of the accounts.
