A question

I was just reading the last minutes from the BOD meeting. I got to the part where they spoke about the fees charged for the SCTP event.

I understand a price increase given the recent increase in target costs.

But if you get a price increase from last years price and they remove the labor that was a part of the fee last year, wouldn’t that be considered a double increase. Labor has a cost and if removed in theory the price lowers.

I don’t understand this decision, seems a little excessive.
