Duties.

My club is probably not alone in this issue, members failing to do duties.

You are not actually receiving money, you will not be paying full amount, pensioners and kids already have a discount, isn't it the same ?

Just because you can't refuse them, doesn't mean you can't reward others who do the work. Does cast doubt on the other way round, though?

I don't know, that's why you need to get a professional opinion. The law is too complicated for anything else. The CASC thing you found, for example, is something I'd not have thought of checking.

Originally posted by 423zero I wouldn't think anyone would want to do extra duties, never been a time when  someone hasn't stepped in though.

That's kinda my point. There's a social pressure on people to do their duties and not let others down. I suspect that if one provides a cash alternative then folk who currently do duties reluctantly will gratefully take up the cash alternative, which leave the club requiring the remaining people to do more duties.

Of course if the income from cash alternatives were sufficient to pay someone to have a part time job as race assistant or whatever that would be another matter, but if a club were to be paying the living wage hourly rates the cash alternative would need to be a great deal more - at a guess something over £100 by the time you've allowed for all the hidden costs of employing someone over basic wage.
