Mike:

keithgoldstein: Sent the affiliation fee emails.
keithgoldstein: Organizing a donation from PPCZ for TT4.

Conclusion
1) E-mail on the topic of affiliation fees sent to the full mailing list (just before NYE, I believe). So far I'm collecting responses to it. 2) PPCZ donation towards TT4: I'm working with Markéta on having the money wired.



Etienne

keithgoldstein: Sent an email about the statutes of the PPI.
Cedric: Report : nothing new. I received one answer for the statutes revisions from Muriel (PPCAT). So wait and see for the rest of our members...

keithgoldstein: The meeting is at 20:00 CET.

Alternates

TECH ISSUES

2.4.3 Functioning of the mailing lists (MO-5 2016 GA)

Task
The link at the bottom of pp-leaders does not function. There is no unsubscribe option: http://lists.pp-international.net/listinfo/pp-leaders



Request to delegate out further to our working group on emails to try to revive and expand use of pp-leaders email list.

FINANCIAL ISSUES

Task


The reference in the wiki at the moment to the 2019 budget is here: https://wiki.pp-international.net/wiki/index.php?title=PPI_Minutes_2018_11_03#9.1._Budget_2019

PPI Minutes 2018 11 03 - PPI PPI_Minutes_2018_11_03#9.1._Budget_2019

It should be added to here: https://wiki.pp-international.net/wiki/index.php?title=Budgets
keithgoldstein: We have NOT discussed the budget in the board. It has not been presented, discussed and voted on.
RayJohansen: - Until a budget is presented and decided on I will not allow us to spend one single Euro.

- Until we have a cash flow budget, same thing

- Until there is a budget for projects or conferences I will not allow us to vote on going ahead with them either.

- By law I am responsible for our use of money, like the rest of you


In conclusion we do not start by spending money before we know whe have the money and nor before suggested projects explain how that is the best use of that money. If you want to spend one Euro do not come to a board meeting with one sentence and expect us to be able to make a decision.


This goes doubly for the IT part of the budget. Before there is a contract and we agree that it is the best and most economical way of spending our money we wont pay anyone.


This is how the world works and there is simply no way you can circumvent my thinking here.

ECOSOC

keithgoldstein: Let's check the veracity of this proposal for a joint written statement on Tamils Genocide in Sri Lanka.


For Next Human Rights Council we want to make a joint written statement on Tamils Genocide in Sri Lanka.


And we need the support of your NGO as supporter please let me to know if we can associate your organization to this appeal.


This appeal is an resume of Resolution which was passed at Nothern Provincial Council in Sri Lanka, which chief Minister is a Sri Lanka former Sri Lankan Supreme Court Judge.


Justice Canagasabapathy Visuvalingam Vigneswaran, is a Sri Lankan Tamil lawyer, judge and politician. He was a magistrate and a judge of the District Court, High Court, Court of Appeal and Supreme Court. He is the current Chief Minister of the Northern Province.


Northern Provincial Council (Tamil: ?? ????? ??? Va?a M?k??a Capai; NPC) is the provincial council for the Northern Province in Sri Lanka. In accordance with the Sri Lankan constitution, NPC has legislative power over a variety of matters including agriculture, education, health, housing, local government, planning, road transport and social services. The constitution also gives it powers over police and land but successive central governments have refused to devolve these powers to the provinces. NPC has 38 members elected using the open list proportional representation system.
