COUNCIL STATEMENT<br />

Complete information on the council’s account with the<br />

<strong>Supreme</strong> <strong>Council</strong> is contained in the statement that is sent<br />

during the first half <strong>of</strong> each month to the financial secretary<br />

<strong>of</strong> every council. The grand knight should examine this<br />

statement every month and should arrange with the financial<br />

secretary to make it available to him for this purpose.<br />

The statement will display at a glance whether the council<br />

is meeting its obligations to the <strong>Supreme</strong> <strong>Council</strong> or exposing<br />

itself to the risk <strong>of</strong> suspension for nonpayment <strong>of</strong> them.<br />

Each month the grand knight receives his own membership<br />

and financial statement (see at right). On it is shown the<br />

progress the council is making in its membership/insurance<br />

program. The financial statement section indicates the<br />

council’s financial standing in relation to the <strong>Supreme</strong><br />

<strong>Council</strong>. On the bottom are instructions for reading the<br />

information provided. This financial statement is merely a<br />

condensed version <strong>of</strong> the monthly statement received by<br />

the financial secretary. It is intended to keep the grand<br />

knight advised in the event the financial secretary fails to<br />

make the regular monthly statement available.<br />
