Contribution exemption
Individual member categories may be exempt from contribution payments where this is provided for in the articles of association. For instance, committee members and honorary members may be exempt from contribution payments.
Question
Our committee does a great deal of work and without compensation. Can we at least waive the annual fee for the individual committee members?
Answer
As all association members generally have the same rights and obligations, this also applies to the payment of the annual fee. An exception can only be made if a corresponding provision is contained in the articles of association. For example: "Committee and honorary members are exempted from the membership fee obligation".
