A few days ahead of a committee meeting

At the committee meeting

  • Present the financial report
  • Obtain authorisation for any expenditure

Periodically

  • Deal with matters as they arise (usually payment or refund requests). These can only be processed where previously authorised – either by committee standing order, or email committee resolution

Carnival Routine

See other post for detail of accounting for carnivals. The current introduction of online race entries is significantly simplifying the Treasurer’s role ahead of carnivals.
