[/quote]Hi Mike - If you have no experience in Grassroot, then usually they will ask volunteer to join CSC first especially since you are staying in another GRC. CSC member is not entitle to P2B priviledges.

one PBM resigned after having argument with the MP.


This guy will follow MP every where MP goes. Sponsoring lucky draw prizes for National Day Dinner and CNY dinner every year. During 2006 and 2011 Election, this guy will fetch and send MP to and fro.

What puzzled me is that this guy owns a printing company. All the colourful tickets usually design by the CO and CO ordered from his printing company. I thought under PA rules and regulations, this is not suppose to be supported.

Usually, CO do not have the \"expertise\" to design, they will invite quotes from printing/media company to provide some concept design/pricing. Then committee will decide who to award, how many quote usually depends on the purchase value.

If he declared his interest, is abstained from decision making and does not involved himself in any of the sales process and still offers the best value for money, then it might be better for taxpayers.
Better to minute down.

@mikeveronreilly, you have already answered your own question (refer to A37). Sub committee under CCMC or CCC does not entitled P2B Priviledge.
CCMC does not have CSC as sub committee.

I recalled about a month or so, somebody posted on this thread regarding being member of CSC for 5years but realized she is not entitled to 2B when she wanted to register her child this year.
CCMC does not have CSC as sub committee.

Only members of CCMC entitles the P2B, all subcomm under it does not, like IAEC, MAEC, CSC, WEC, YEC etc.

To be safe join RC member as a beginner.


Phase 2B is only applicable to schools fall under your own GRC.

For example: let’s say I am staying in Toa Payoh, I am only entitled to Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC. I can’t apply Nanyang, SCGS, St Nicks, ACS, RGPS.
But I can apply just name a few good ones: Peichun, Catholic High

The CO working in the CC will just simply order the printing of tickets from this guy’s company. As the value is only less than $500, she will just go ahead and conveniently order. Which I don’t like, CO simply throws the invoices to me to issue cheque. Never even discuss with the committee.


Another case, one RC member from other zone, he is a professional photographer. Many big events, the organiser will ask this RC member to be the photographer. He is charging the RC. Price range $180 - $360 depending on the length of the event.
I thought out of passion, RC member should not take a single cent which is for personal benefit. He can charge developing fee, photographs and CD fee.

And again CO will simply and conveniently asking this photographer to do all the events.

Hi, if you believe there are concerns, then it is better to discuss with Auditor and Chairman first, any member can and should raise their concern. Even though we are volunteer only but ultimately we are the ones that sign the cheques. CO only helps prepare quotes and issue cheque and suay suay somebody complain then a whole lot of defending and creditability at sake.
