Amendments to NSU

This is part of the Special Resolution signed by all Directors on 29th November 2011.....for those of you who doubt . I couldn't copy and paste it so have just copied some of the relevant Powers.

Amended Articles of Association.

2c To further its objects the Foundation may

2C1 Provide assistance in the provision of money , materials and other help.

2C2 Organise and Assist in the provision of Conferences, courses of instruction , exhibitions, lectures, and other educational activities.

2C3 Publish and distribute books , pamphlets, reports, leaflets , journals, films, tapes and instructional material on any media.

2C4 Promote, encourage, carry out or commission research ,surveys, studies or other work, making the usefulk results available.

2C6 Alone, or with other Organisations seek to influence public opinion and make representation to and seek to influence Governmental and other bodies and institutions.

2C7 Enter into Contracts to provide Services to or on behalf of other bodies.

2C8 Acquire or rent and Property of any kind and any rights or privileges in and over property and construction and maintaining building.

These amendments are subject to the safe return of Madeleine McCann to her Parents.

There is more, but as a two fingered typist, it's taken me ages to type these. As you can see , the date of this Special Resolution suggests Finding Madeleine will be wound up and the Company used for all these new activities,.

Yes, I mentioned that I found it and had a read, what I was asking for subsequent to that was a link the Michael Whinter had anything to do with it and how you found out that he knows the Mc's and that they commissioned the song.

I don't know susible, I assumed ...out of nowhere, he comes along , after 7 years , a Businessman , just when there is a dearth of news about Madeleine or the McCanns, already saturation of videos about Madeleine on youtube don't you think it odd???

Nope, not odd at all, just someone else trying to jump onto an already overcrowded band wagon, which I'm sure he will fall immediately back off when the Mc's start demanding any proceeds he gets for the single for the fund or else they'll sue for the use of Madeleine's image!

But thanks for clarifying that there is no official connection, I think he's just a wannabe, and a rather rubbish one at that

Well, he certainly can't sing and is his words barely understood.....as for being a "business man", it would be interesting to know in what field..

Re amendments to resolution this link gives the full details

This is an interesting one - a reason a Director's post can be vacated -

8.3 the Directors reasonably believe he or she is suffering from mental disorder and incapable of acting and they resolve that he or she be removed from office,

another interesting one

2C.6 alone or with other organisations seek to influence public opinion and make representations to and seek to influence governmental and other bodies and institutions;


This rather ambigious

2C.10 borrow or raise and secure the payment of money for any purpose including for the purposes of Investment or of raising funds;

Panda, this is a link to the original from 2007 but I can't see any difference?

Hi wjk.......yes , I AGREE.....but without going through the M&A there must have been a reason for this SPECIAL RESOLUTION (amendment to the M&A) signed individually by all the Directors. I only quoted some of the clauses, too many for me to type individually. I have a copy of it but can't cut and pasts it on to this Forum. My guess is it's the work of Smethurst because they are planning the closure of the fund, but to keep the Private company.

Hope this is ok, I copied from Joanna's site

http://joana-morais.blogspot.com/2012/01/special-resolution-amendments-to.html

This 24-pages document was filed on December 21, 2011 at the Companies House. Pages 1 to 11 have a similar text and the signatures of the current directors [except Edward Smethurst's signature] approving a “Special Resolution” (sic). From page 12 to 24 follow the amended articles of the “Foundation” (sic), that is, of Madeleine's Fund Leaving No Stone Unturned Limited. On January 8, 2012 the private limited company full accounts [up to March 31, 2011 - without Kate McCann's book royalties & book deals] were made available at the Companies house, the stamp on the first page indicates they were filed on December 30, 2011. Since yesterday several UK newspapers have been reporting spinning on the Fund “dwindling donations”, seemingly oblivious of the amendments to the Articles of the company and despite their obvious significance; adjustments which effectively ensure the McCann couple & associates will now have a quasi “carte-blanche” regarding the use of the Fund's donations.

Amendment to the “Amendments”: It seems almost all of the Articles listed bellow give an identical level of financial control over the fund's assets and have been present in the Company's statutes since its incorporation date on May 15, 2007. The most interesting change is the complete removal from the Fund's objects of an article that has appeared in all the Accounts(including in the latest) and Articles for the years of 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 & 2011 - “To provide support, including financial assistance, to Madeleine's family”. Which raises at least one question: “What happened around November 29, 2011 that made the fund directors circulate an amendment to remove that article in particular?” Is it a mere case of excluding a superfluous article or could there be something else behind this modification? Pages 1 to 11

cherry 1.......aren't you the clever one.!!!

I just managed to put the reference number on an e-mail , but it still wouldn't copy on to here.no matter how much I read about omputers I will never understand them.

Ah right, I see what you're saying. WHY the need to ammend it and get it signed by all the directors?

Panda well it took me long enough to work it out how to put on links

when you get the page up you want to copy highlight the website in the browser by left clicking , right click on it and go to Copy then go onto this site, put your cursor on the reply page and right click and go to Paste and it should come out with a link

If you want to copy the whole page of the site you are looking at highlight the whole page, right click and go to copy, go onto reply on this site, put cursor on and right click and go to paste.

at least I think thats what I do

cherry 1 I think with all the money Kate made from the sale of her Book, T.V. Interviews etc , £200,000 paid by the Sun , "Substantial Advance "the Fund only received the Royalties . They could hardly claim financial help from the Fund" without appearing avaricious now could they.

Cherry 1, can you pm those instructions to me, step by step and I will copy and paste on to my Computer. TA x

Exactly, especially as so many people disgusted at pubicly donated money which they appealed for in order to help search for Madeleine went to mortgage payment.

It does worry me though about being able to raise money - 'for any purpose' certainly would not inspire me to donate to a fund which could raise money for 'any purpose'

Having a Fund set up in the first week or two struck me as very suspicious. What parent needs money to search for their lost children when the authorities do this type of work? Engaging lawyers was a sign of guilt IMO so it was obvious lawyers need paying and usually they don't come cheap. So their fellow masons, the gullible and children dipped into their piggy banks and sent the McCanns some hard-earned money.

The Fund certainly made the rules to feather the extended family nest as well as pay the McCann mortgage and new lifestyle.

The new ammendments seem to make the Company even more Universal in it's range of possible endeavours. I think it all points to just a money-making enterprise as nobody has observed any searching for Madeleine being carried out even when sightings have been mentioned. Are we surprised? I don't think so. As a taxpayer, I'm annoyed at £3M being wasted on a NSY review which we all knew wouldn't produce any result whatsoever.

Will this new set of amendments make any difference before someone brings down the house of cards and tells the truth?

Thanks to Joana for the info.

what'supdoc,

I have a horrble feeling that the SY review will not be published, even though it was taxpayers money that paid for it.!!!! If there is no evidence of PJ negligence Cameron is going to look a bit sick for caving in to the McCanns and Rebecca Brooks.

However, one ray of light, if Amaral wins the case against him then maybe the British Press will demand to have the SY Report published.

I think in the very start of this sy attempt ,we were told ,it would not be published and people would not be kept up to date . sometimes macs talk as if they are informed but we may take that with pinch of salt ,i hope joyce1938

Hi joyce1938, a Happy New Year to you and yours.
This not to be published remark to me pre-empts a not guilty of any wrong doing result, as if guilty it would be all over the media, arrests and court cases, so a not published means we go we look and we find nothing, end of.
A complete waste of a lot of money.

This is when British Government shows how undemocratic it is .! What about the millions of people who donated to the Fund, and now the Taxpayers, don't they have the right to know ??? IF the review says there was no evidence that the PJ were negligent why did the McCanns consistently claim they were??? wouldn't this put an end to donations to the fund at least and scupper Kate's latest book.

as we have found all along ,no one is about to admit anything .found or not ,yes it all could be waste of time and money ,how long can it be to just go through work allready done by portugal?If more isnt being done then its been not worth the paper its writen on ,such a shame it may turn out to be just as some said it was all along .never going to reveal anything ,i had hoped against hope that it would turn up at least ,some of the questions we ask over and over,not a peep .happy new year to all joyce1938

Happy New Year to you as well .

I think David Cameron said the Report would not be made public to save face if nothing was found, maybe the Press will insist or we start a Petition as donors to the Fund......we shall see.

In this interview (from a number they made this day) in Nov 2010, gerry mccann says "...The government know we have kept a lot of information quiet" at 1'17

Wonder if this has a double meaning......

thanks jd16, I watched the video about the McCanns in Donegal that is insteresting as well. ! They keep harping on about the PJ , yet what the H*** have they done to search for their daughter???? NOT ONE detective they have paid for has a modicum of experience in searching for missing children , they have demolished the fund through mismanagement yet will not accept any criticism .

WHAT INFORMATION HAS BEEN KEPT QUIET?
ANY IDEAS?
