5. The treasurer’s report of the accounts and the
certification by the auditors for the year 2009:
71.000
sv.kr transferred from Danish meeting. Possibly caused by missing
payment of
VAT for Danish meeting and one lecturer that had to cancel (hotel- and
flight
expenses). Discussion what to do with money: There is a possibility to
pay back
money to participants as NOSOVE non-profit organisation. Auditors found
accounts in good order. Treasurer’s report acknowledged.

11. Francois invited to SVEPM meeting in France last week in March. Please note that poster space is limited so people are advised to submit poster topics as soon possible.

Suggestion
accepted.
12. Meeting set
for end of January 2011, in Norway,
pending on availability of lecturer. Makes sense to settle account at
end of
year. Topic: Health economics, possibly Jonathan Rushton as course
lecturer.
Licitation of expert opinion is another suggestion.

Trude Lyngstad and Madelaine Norström
13. Suggestions
what to use money for in coming years:
Suggestions
to sponsor drinks at SVEPM or support travel or lower fee for
PhD-students from
Baltic countries, Poland etc.
AG decided to include support of PhD students from Baltic countries, Poland etc to attend NOSOVE courses as a case for next years AG. In order not create too much work for the board, it could be based on a first come, first serve basis.
