He will be allowed to reintegrate after having paid to the Association’s Treasurer. Attention!
The delay available for the member to recover his
debts is equal to the time he stayed without paying his fees.
In the case the member has been excluded because he was overloaded with projects, programs, Departments or subsidiary companies, his rights will be maintained or suspended according to the Steering Committee’s decision. In the case the member was penalized for discrediting the project he is involved in, he will be suspend immediately and if the latter is the project coordinator, his responsibilities will be passed on someone else indicated by the Steering Committee. |
