Minutes of ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2018-19 held on 29th September 2018
at the Yarl Function Centre, Pendle Hill
These are the minutes of the twenty seventh Annual General Meeting of the NSW Tamil Senior
Citizens Association held from 10.15am on Saturday 29 September 2018 at Yarl Function Centre,
Pendle Hill. Mr. A. Sivathondan, President, served as the chair. There were 147 members in
attendance.
The meeting started with a rendition of the Australian National Anthem followed by ‘Thamizh Mozhli
Vazhlthu’ and our Association Anthem.
The names of twenty one members who had passed away during the year were read out by the
President, and a two minutes silence was observed in their memory.
PRESIDENT’S ADDRESS
The President in his address stated that he was very pleased with the cooperation he had from the
management committee and the members in carrying out his duties as President of the Association.
The year had its full quota of various celebrations like Saraswathi pooja,Deepavali,Christmas,sports
meet,cricket match etc to name a few. He thanked the members for their participation.
As detailed in the reports presented to the meeting the main issue faced by the Association was the
demand for $19,000, a very large amount, as yearly hire for the Bates street hall used by us on
Thursdays. Several meetings had been held with mayor,councillors and officers of Strathfield
Council and recently a proposal to reduce this to approximately $4000 has been made. Even this
amount is excessive for us and further negotiations are in train. President acknowledged the
assistance of Mayor and councillors. He also acknowledged a grant of $3000 received from Hon
Ray Williams Minister for Multicultural NSW.
President also announced the Award of a certificate by the Hon Scott Farlow MLC consequent to
the passing of a resolution in the NSW State Parliament complimenting the services TSCA provides
to the community.
MINUTES OF THE LAST ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
The minutes of the previous AGM, having already been circulated to all members, were taken as
read. The minutes were proposed for adoption by Mr N Murugesu, and seconded by Mr S
Suntheralingam. The minutes were adopted as a correct and true record of the proceedings of the
Annual General Meeting held on 27th September 2017.
ANNUAL REPORT 2017-18
The Annual Report of the Committee of Management for the year 2017 – 18 having already been
circulated to all members, was taken as read.
The Secretary thanked all members of the Committee and other members for the support and cooperation without which we could not have completed our weekly meetings successfully in a manner benefiting all members. AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Audited Financial Statements for the year ending 30 June 2018, having already been
circulated, were tabled for consideration. The Audited Financial Statements were adopted on being
proposed and seconded by Mr Logenthiran and Mr K Thangarajah. respectively.
REVIEW OF THE ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR MEMBERSHIP
Mr Logenthiran described how the subscriptions were increased from $15 to $20 when the church
authorities claimed for an increased rent for our office premises in The Boulevarde, Strathfield. Now
we have saved $4000 which we had been paying as rent for the office and we must be careful in
our expenditure as the Council intends to charge rent for the Bates Street Hall which we had been
using free for more than 25 years.

Mr Velupillai said that the subscription was increased from $15 to $20 when there was an increase
in the rent paid for the office premises but now as the office is closed the amount can be reduced to
$15 again. He also said that if the members want the $20 to continue and it can be reviewed if any
problems arise later. Mr Rajanayagam expressing his opinion told that there are people in the
Committee who can handle these situations and that we all should support their decision. Mr
Naguleswaran endorsed the view of the President who has said that we can continue with $20 as
subscription. It was unanimously decided to continue $20 as the annual subscription.

10. Bates St Premises and hire charges
Last year we reported the continuous negotiations with the Strathfield Council re the hire charges payable
for the use of the Bates Street premises.
In December 2017 we were asked to pay $19714 for 2018. After protracted negotiations between the
Strathfield Council and the president Mr Sivathondan, it was reduced to $4066 for a year effective August
2018.
Our president took up the matter again and after intense negotiations Strathfield councillors unanimously
agreed to give us a discount of 95% on the normal hire charges subject to certain conditions. This new rate
applies from the last Thursday of February 2019. This equates to $1600 (approx) for a year. We trust that we
will continue to get this rate in the future.
The mayor and the councillors have complimented Mr Sivathondan, our president, for his persuasive but
professional manner of negotiations.
We wish to thank the Mayor and the councillors of Strathfield council for their understanding and assistance
in solving this important issue.
11. Recognition by NSW Government
Our Association proudly announces that it has been awarded the NSW Seniors Festival Local Achievement
Award for for this year too. We received the award once previously in 2011.
Hon Ms Jodi McKay M.P. said at the award ceremony that the award recognises the Association's service to
the community and also the persuasive and successful negotiations the president had with the Council that
resulted in lower hire charges not only for our Association but also for the benefit of other similar
organisations that use the Bates Street Community centre premises. We wish to thank Hon Ms Jodi McKay
M.P for recognising us. Mr Sivathondan received the award on behalf of the Association.
Acknowledgements

1.1 Basis of accounting
Tamil Senior Citizens' Association(NSW) Inc.(the Association) is an association incorporated in
New South Wales, Australia.
The Committee of Management have prepared the financial statements on the basis that the Association is
a non-reporting entity because there are no users dependent on a general purpose financial report.

meet the requirements of the Association Incorporation Act 2009 and the constitution of
Tamil Senior Citizens' Association(NSW)Inc.
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement
requirements specified by the Australian Accounting Standards and Incorporations and disclosure
requirements of AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements, AASB 107 Statements of Cash Flows and

The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost. Historical cost is generally
on the fair values of the consideration given in exchange for goods and services. All amounts
are presented in Australian Dollars, unless otherwise noted.
1.2 Plant and Equipment
Depreciation is provided for on a straight line basis for all depreciable assets so as to write off the
depreciable asset as it is consumed over its useful life as per taxation guidelines. As per taxation
standards all items under $300.00 are fully depreciated in the year of purchase.
All serviceable assets are shown at a minimum value of $1.00.
