Summary of conclusions & actions:

if the membership expands.
Secretariat authorisation:
Agreed: Statements of policy and lobbying require approval, even if something appears
to have been agreed in a meeting. Statements of fact can be delegated as long as it
doesn’t relate directly to a member or is likely to have a bearing on a member’s
reputation. Permission for use of logos has already been given.

The letter to Maria Damanaki will now be redrafted to introduce the SSC to the
