Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
Are you the Dermot Hudson (nicknamed "Herby") who finished 6th in K2 with Simon Van Lonkhuyzen at the Liffey Descent last year? http://www.liffeydescent.com/Results.aspx If so then I'm fairly sure you can be heard defending the accounts at 1140/1470 of the mp3 clip... How many Dermot Hudsons from Sa...

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
For those who don't know Dermot, he is an accountant who paddles for Salmon Leap that can be heard defending the audit of ICU accounts back at the AGM in 2008. Seanie posted an mp3 of it here: http://forum.iww.ie/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=823 So Herby, in your professional opinion, do you still think the ...

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
Being chairperson of a technical committee doesn't make you a director of the ICU. We may have our lines crossed here Herby. You said Mick is not on the board of directors. I am saying that he has been voting as a member of the board for some years. Are you defining the Executive as the board of di...

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
Herby, i know its only hearsay and conjecture, but having spoken to several people that know more about this than most, best estimates are that Mick's salary was in the region of 110,00 euro per year. If you think that as members of the ICU, we were getting good value for money, then you should cont...

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
Mick isn't even on the board of directors - he's just an employee of the ICU. Please read my post RE: slalom Mick has up until recently been voting on behalf of absent technical committees. Therefore he has had a defacto position on the board of directors for many years. There are many examples of ...

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
The problem at the ICU is a lack of governance excercised by the directors down through the years. Herby, i agree 100% with you on this! Mick was given far too much liberty and control over all aspects of ICU administration from the Liffey Descent, to High Performance, right down to accounts and pa...

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
I doubt the signatures match, Gerry Laheen is head & secretary of Naas kayak club, according to ICU website and from what I know myself, and his name is missing as a signatory. AFAIK the club doesn't exist off paper. These are the ICU articles relating to EGMs Extraordinary Delegate Meeting 21. All...

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
The point I'm trying to make is that rumours, opinion and half-truths can be dangerous. I for one would hate to contribute to the ruin of a man's reputation and livelyhood without having all the facts. Maybe I'm being naïve but surely an EGM would be the proper forum for disscussing these important...

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
Through the magic of google i've established that 6 of the signatures are from Kilcullen, 4 are from Barrowline, and 2 are from Salmon Leap.
So 12 of the signatures are coming from 3 clubs....

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
I'm currently going through those names but Kevin Murphy and Declan Golding are both from Salmon Leap. Jock Kelly and Noel O'Connell are both from Kilcullen. The Linneys are both from Barrowline.

Re: FW: Response to ICU statement
I just read the list of signatories and clubs! :lol: This is a total joke lads. You have Kilcullen Canoe Club calling an EGM when arguably their most prominent member, Brendan O'Connell is accused of basically aiding in the falsification of employment contracts, pensions and god knows what else!!!! ...

Re: ICU Statement on the Suspension of CEO Michael Scanlon
Yes the ICU has had to spend extra cash and resources on the legal issues, but they have been successful in securing the ISC grant and the ICU staff are continuing to offer courses and continue to facilitate members. Lets hope the ICU can win the current High Court case which Mick Scanlon has taken...
