Every advertising fund statement must be accompanied by an audit report unless at least 75% of franchisees who contribute to the fund agree to waive the audit report requirement.
These votes need to be carried out by the National Franchisor and are completely anonymous.
The advertising fund statement must be supplied by the end of August if you wish to have a vote carried out.
If an audit is required, the cost of the audit is to be paid from the fund.
