General Manager’s Report - February 8, 2007

General Manager Frank Alec has posted a report detailing the current status of the LBN Financial Recovery Plans for review by interested members.

Summary excerpt from report:  Lake Babine Nation has undergone a change that was inevitable and predicted in the 2003 fiscal year of operations. The change that has occurred is eliminating expenditure patterns that continued to contribute to the Nation’s deficit. Many reviews have taken place by Council, Management, INAC officials, and our Band Auditor to assist into the recovery plans. Band Members need to know that these reviews include: 03/04, 04/05, 05/06 Audited Financial Statements, Remedial Management Plan (February 2004) as the result of the 03/04 audited review and then the Band was to enter into a new Canada/First Nations Funding Agreement (CFNFA) in the fiscal year to start 2006 for five years.
How these reviews connect to each other is why Lake Babine Nation has taken so long to recover, also just as long to advise our Band Members.

This report is very important for Members to read, question, and find out more information where needed. This report is fact and shows exactly where the money was spent and for what purpose. Members will also note how the redirected funds impacted the Nation.
