"....doesn't look that good in terms of iaoc performance over time." Are you seriously suggesting that we are looking for more and more expensive venues over time?
No. And obviously not. I don't see how it helps to suggest that either. > Do you not think there might be some
factors such as inflation, currency fluctuations, general cost increases (oil prices perhaps) that dictate most of this?
Inflation is accounted for in the figures given. We're still >20% above inflation in terms of hotel prices based on these figures. You might claim hotel price inflation is higher than the overall, I don't know. I would hope the iaoc would know that. What I'm claiming is that the numbers seem to me to show that the outcome is not so good. And hence it seems to me that the iaoc is not performing that well in this respect. You might bring out the meeting fee argument etc. but I think you (the iaoc as a group) should start by acknowledging that there is a real issue here and then try to address that and *not* argue I'm accusing you of bad faith or something.
