During the 3rd Management Commitee meeting held in Brussels on July 3rd, 2006, M. Pascu informed about the STSM procedures. He also presented a check-list specifying the tasks the MC and COST Office have in order to approve a STSM and the payment of it. The Management Committee decided that the STSM panel is: Poul Jennum ( Chair) , Maria Rosaria Bonsignore and Emilia Sforza members. The MC also decided to delegate the attribution to deal with STSMs to the panel; the panel will inform the MC occasioned each of the MC meetings.
