Brussels, August 23rd 2006

Dear Colleagues,

Herewith we have pleasure in inviting you to the next General Assembly that will be held in Bucharest on Friday September 22nd.

May I draw your attention to the fact that our general assemblies have now both in contents as at the level of the discussions reached or even overtaken similar events of other European associations. Therefore it is of utmost importance that all national associations would attend and actively participate in the assembly and this includes the afternoon debate for which other speakers than those proposed are of course also welcome.

Sincerely,
Jean-Pierre Paelinck
