Why is it in June the GORTT. still owe PT money for pan players?
Don't worry Cecil, with the international Panorama things will soon change. Claude boy Diaz will have to deal with the FBI. There are Americans in this competition.
Not only in the Mecca, in "Foreign" also, check out this rule for the International Panorama,they really think Pan people dotish.
Where in the world a band would travel overseas for a competition after incurring expenses for the trip, and then have to pay the organizer a percentage of their prize money. This to me, is like a shakedown.
Can any one explain/interpret this rule for me? Remit 10% for development purpose, I did not know PT or the ICP/UWI had a development fund for Pan.
You might as well call it a charity event, where this donation 10% is tax deductible. This coming from a group not well know for transparency.
13. FINANCE
13.1 Financial Contributions – In keeping with a decision taken by the International Conference & Panorama (ICP) Steering Committee, each steelband which participates in the competition shall remit to the ICP a financial contribution in a sum equivalent to ten percent (10%) of the earnings of the steelband from Prize Monies and Appearance Fees, for developmental purposes.
13.2 Deduction from Gross Earnings – For the purposes of convenience in remitting payment of the financial contribution mentioned in clause 13.1 hereof, the organization shall deduct the respective sum from the gross earnings of each steelband prior to paying over the net earnings to the said steelband.
