AGM 2010 - Membership commitee report

Annual General Meeting - 10th December, 2010

The primary duty of the membership committee is to ensure that all applications to join
Kanturk Credit Union Limited satisfy the eligibility requirements. Eligibility to join is defined
by our common bond which includes people residing or employed in the parishes of
Kanturk, Lismire, Banteer, Castlemagner, Kilbrin, Dromtarriffe, Freemount and Tullylease.
In addition, family members of an existing Credit Union member who reside with the member
are also accepted as members. All that is required to open an account with Kanturk Credit
Union Limited is an initial lodgement of €6.35. It will be the best investment you will ever make!
We would encourage members to avail of our "new born" accounts scheme. Parents/Guardians
who open an account for their children under the age of 12 months will automatically receive a
lodgement of €25.00 to the child's account as a "thank you" from Kanturk Credit Union Limited.
As a member of Kanturk Credit Union Limited, every member can nominate a person or persons
of their choosing, to be beneficiaries fo their savings in the event of death. If you have recently
married or re-married, or if you have reached the age of 16, we woudl advise you to complete or
update the "nomination form". As the maximum payable under a nomination is €23,000.00, a
nomination can be a very useful way of bequeathing funds to family or friends as desired. Any
member of staff will be happy to answer any queries you may have regarding nominations.
We would also encourage any member who has changed address or telephone numbers to
please notify the Credit Union immediately. Simpluy bring a recent household bill or document
with your new address details, and we will update our records accordingly.
