Countries with more than 100 (paying) members are: The KFPS has members in 55 countries across all continents. These foreign members are represented by 9 delegates on the KFPS Member Council. Another channel for members to have a say in KFPS matters is the WFHO, an organisation in which all stud- The KFPS can look back on a successful 2014. In this year the main theme was the celebration of the 135th anniversary of the KFPS. The musical theatre show ‘Faderpaard’ which was performed to commemorate the event was a huge success. This theatre production NUMBER OF MEMBERS BY COUNTRY under the leadership of Jos Thie was based on the poem by Tsjebbe Hettinga, the Friesian poet who died in 2013.

Not least because there is an increasing demand from abroad and the (international) economy is on the road to recovery. Considering the downward trend of the past years we Seminarwoche must factor in that registration and inspection numbers will initially keep falling in the coming years.

The participants were very positive about the programme and its organisation. 1.2 Regions and Member Council 1.5 KFPS business In 2014 the usual two meetings of the Member Council were held, preceded by meetings in all 13 regions. The Member Council After a term of eight years the 2014 autumn meeting was the moment to say goodbye to Pieter Tuinman in his capacity as has approved the following policy-related resolutions: Vice-Chairman and Treasurer.

In the past year the net result of financial credits and debits has gone up in comparison to the previous year due to a favourable revenue from security stocks, however, interest returns have gone down. With own Office Solvability There have been no major staff mutations in 2014. Due to some minor changes the number of FTEs has slightly dropped. The outcome for 2014 is 7.9 FTEs.

As regards the assets (active), this is due to higher receivables because the entry for interest revenue is higher, and a higher account receivables. Moreover, the positions of stock securities and liquid assets have gone up. As Trijnie Duin regards the liabilities (passive), the long-term debt concerning Studbook certificates has risen because the number of unsettled certificates is still growing. At the same time short-term debits have gone up, mainly caused by received subsidies in relation to the research of sweet-itch which will be paid to the research centre in 2015. 3.

Taking all categories into account, for a surplus in stud services. Thanks to good investment revenues financial benefits are higher than budgeted. the number of inspections in 2014 was down by almost 18%. This drop is related to the downward trend in stud services and registered foals since 2003. Costs Total expenses have risen in relation to 2013. This is mainly due to incidental debits budgeted for investments in growth and new markets, the protection of various logos in several continents, promotion in foreign countries, production of the international special ‘The Royal Friesian’, KFPS TV and ‘Faderpaard’/Stallion Inspection. As expected, more costs were involved in the making of musical theatre production ‘Faderpaard’. However, this was counterbalanced by the success which generated higher revenues. 3.4 Long-range expectations Expectations for the years ahead are not positive.

One project the KFPS actively participates in is the Horsegene project. This is a research project that, for one thing, attempts to develop a DNA test for sweet-itch. For the benefit of this research the KFPS has collected almost 400 samples of affected and non-affected animals.
