Unanimously: The delegates are for the reform concept .
The navel-gazing from falling short. In a two-minute introductory film at the extraordinary general meeting ADAC is again reminded of the terrible crisis. Germany’s largest automobile club was “a totalverfilzte organization” that make money “under the guise of an association,” says a young man on the street. “The good image was gone,” said a voice from the off. But when the Einspieler ends with the reconciliatory promise that “tomorrow on the help of the ADAC leave” could be surging first to applause. When the formalities to be decided, the delegates stretch like the voting cards in the air – everything unanimously. Your questions are usually embedded in courtesies, the club had “taken a huge step forward,” or phrases that are still in the ADAC “Yellow Blood” flowed. It praises the “tremendous team effort,” to summon the “great community”.

So harmonious is the way of the good four hours that St. Nicholas. At the end of the previously acting acting Vice President August Markl is elected as a president until 2017. In no unanimity, there are even 28 nay-sayers. But 180 votes are clear enough, there is a standing ovation.
The ADAC Annual General Meeting in Munich headquarters is only for a small part of the 19 million members: Exactly 197 representatives and deputies who posted regional clubs to vote together with the Bureau on a reform concept that the greatest crisis of confidence in the 111 should make us forget-year history. The night before the delegates met, have previously played much of what is broadcast live on Saturday via Internet. Nothing should be left to cha nce. Is this AGM even a staging to the public?
The ADAC wanted to regain confidence, President August Markl says. Confidence that came obviously lost in the wake of the scandal involving manipulation of the reader vote for the car “Yellow Angel” and the resignation of long-time president Peter Meyer. Meyer also has come to Munich, as President of the ADAC Nordrhein. He listens as his legitimate successor to previous denounces abuses and promises more grassroots democracy. The members should be involved in the work of the regional clubs, should be able to discuss in Internet forums. The ADAC wants to stay “ideal society”, will “be noble and good,” as one member puts it, without being charitable.
< br />His club ADAC purpose will also continue to support through economic activities. Finally, he puts billions by selling insurance or travel. But the commercial activities must not damage the association status. Also was “the profit motive is not at the forefront,” said Markl. And possible conflicts between business interests and consumer protection activities, it should be no more. “At the same testing and selling impossible,” Jürgen Heraeus, the UNICEF-Germany-chairman and spokesperson of the new ADAC Advisory Board, the club wrote in the album. 360 products and services of the ADAC were therefore checked for conflicts of interest. No longer require the ADAC ie battery test and snow chains tests because he wants to c ontinue to sell these products.
The ADAC now separates the strict association of economic activities. Much of “unbundling” the speech, and of “Entherrschung”. So the investment and business service should be transformed from a limited to a corporation. The club is at the AG have and not 100 percent 74.9 percent stake. Minority shareholders of AG with blocking minority to be a newly formed ADAC Foundation, are primarily external members sit in their fünfköpfigem Trustees. “Full tr ansparency” promises ADAC Advisory Board Heraeus. He compares the ADAC crisis with the donations scandal at Unicef. Something was not forgotten in three days, that will reverberate years. Heraeus stops with his ADAC work after the next Annual General Meeting in May 2015. “When I was younger,” he says, “I would look at the Fifa.” The ADAC delegates applaud and laugh. And it sounds almost as if they were relieved about all those organizations which deliver an even more devastating public image.
clarity of the ADAC hopes to the dispute, how much taxable insurance benefit is in the ADAC posts. Must solely from tax audits for the years 2007 to 2009 expect the ADAC with payments to the Treasury of 150 to 200 mil lion euros. If the tax authorities retain its argument right, the ADAC would have to pay extra for the years after 2009. And in Munich checked the district court for months, if the ADAC continue to satisfy the requirement for the association status or whether it is more likely but a business enterprise connected with automobile club.
