ORGCEM Annual Report 2024; earlier passes recorded the statistics, images and tables. This pass added: Table 29 total administrative fees, printed "€1,518,5000" (recorded as the literal digits EUR 15,185,000, unit basis guessed, note giving both readings; EUR 1,518,500 matches the GCES column); the +36.8% eligibility applications (p. 6, "almost"; the earlier to_do called it contributions); Table 10 and Appendix A donation totals (18, 119, 137, 342 donations; EUR 1,233,124.85 for 2022-2023; EUR 3,295,798 as printed in Table 10); GCES agents' performance (25 agents; the busiest with 21 approved and 2 rejected; two with 9 each), 5 missing property declarations, FIAU 16, 2 GCES complaints pending; IIP: 5 old applications re-vetted after media allegations, agents' performance (5 agents; 1 with 7 applications = 64%; 4 with one each), review requests (0, 71, 1 pending), 86% of the cap; restated rules for both schemes (as in 2023).
