Statement of the Management Committee of the Competitors’ Commission
Dear Competitors,
On 5 February 2018, the Management Committee received a letter from lawyers instructed by the Board of Directors of the World Dance Council, alleging that the Board of Directors had dissolved the Competitors’ Commission and decided to create a new WDC Competitors’ Committee, to take on the functions of the Competitors’Commission.
The Management Committee confirms that it is currently engaged in a legal dispute with the Board of Directors of the World Dance Council in which it is disputing the dissolution of the Competitors’ Commission and seeking to protect the independent status of the Competitors’Commission within the World Dance Council.
The Competitors’ Commission is an organisation with a long history of acting as the independent “voice” of Competitors, to ensure that their concerns can be raised in an open forum, by those who are independent of the Board of Directors of the World Dance Council.
The Management Committee very much hopes that an amicable resolution with the Board of Directors can be reached in due course.
If you have any queries in relation to this matter, please do feel free to get in touch.
Management Committee of the Competitors’ Commission
