For each popular retirement savings plan subscribed to by an association, cash and securities accounts are opened for the payment of expenses relating to the operation and duties of the supervisory committee and expenses relating to the operation of the general meeting or decided by the latter. Withdrawals from these accounts may only be made to settle expenses incurred by the association in respect of the plan or to repay sums to the plan.
Movements of cash and securities in the accounts allocated to each plan referred to in the first paragraph are carried out under the responsibility of the chairman of the association or, where applicable, its treasurer.
The association’s articles of association or bylaws set out the conditions for managing the accounts mentioned in the first paragraph and the conditions for withdrawals from these accounts.
