tournaments and title norms. For these services FIDE should be properly funded.
On registration FIDE shall supervise the proper scheduling of important events
to avoid conflicts in the chess calendar. Registration shall consist of:
- Certification by the national federation that it approves the event.
- Arbiter's report submitted not later than two weeks after conclusion of the
event, including details of results, tournament category, norms, ratings of
players, protests and other significant incidents.
- The national federations in whose territories international chess
competitions are held, are to register these tournaments at the FIDE
Secretariat; a list of the registered tournaments will be published regularly;
the federations will be invoiced once a year, effective with events beginning on
or after January 1st, 1981, on the basis of the following division:
