AGM

[Ianbrownlee]

Does the motion actually have any effect to non-Fide rated tournaments in Scotland? My understanding is that it does not and Stevie Hilton is in the process of altering the wording to clarify that the motion is only a guide and is not enforceable. Have I got that right?

Robin has asked this question several times without getting a yes/no answer. Are non-fide events affected yes or no? simple enough question

Let me ask another question, apart from division 1 of the SNCL what FIDE events are there in Scotland

Finally what events in Scotland are non-fide but are run by Chess Scotland therefore could be affected by this. Specifically I am thinking about provision and allocation of carers and wheelchair access.

I think that these questions must be clarified before the AGM as for example the Lanarkshire Chess league rep has to take advice from our members on how to vote. If wheelchair access is in the mix then we may have to decide on the definition of wheelchair access and the 3m rule. I can honestly see congresses under threat because of this simply because it may become unworkable.
