    Unfortunately some anglers who didn't renew there subs to the Angling association I chair are getting nasty. It's a long story but what documents can they legally see? I've sent minutes to mtgs and our constitution but they are asking to see membership roles and bank statements for 5 years. What documents are we required by law to disclose and what is the correct way they should be asked for ?? Should we wait for a court order for then or what? So far I've been handing over whatever he asks for but this is all going crazy.

    I suppose I should say the members thought they could pay their subs late by agreement with the secretary but he died and never documented the agreement so they lapsed and now they think it's unfair.

    As a treasurer of a angling club myself,I would request all correspondence be done in writing via the club secretary,I would not give any details of club accounts or details of fishing leased cost etc to any none members,I am 99% sure that members details are covered by the data protection act. If there is no documentary evidence of a agreement to pay there subs late then they have not got a leg to stand on unless it can be clearly seen on the bank statements or ticket stubs that they or other members regally paid there subs late.
