Financial Status

(Luc, 5 minutes)

Update and latest strategies to keep track of members and payments.

As Ana is too busy, this is also the official transfer of this role to Luc H, as decided during the last meeting.

-> Ok for Luc to take responsibility for it until early 2018.

-> Anne-Laure et Yann H. seront les vérificateurs de comptes pour l'année 2017 et valideront dès réception du bilan annuel en janvier 2018 en préparation de l'AG du 7 mars 2018. Toutes les factures leur seront présentées.

-> Les vérificateurs pour 2018 devront être voté à l'AG.

Membership Status of people with entry cards

(Rachel, 5 minutes)

People from La Nebuleuse and the WaterDropDNA project (BangBang) want access, but are not paying membership fees.
Luc: I thought La Nébuleuse was paying 2 memberships to have access.
WaterDropDNA needs access for what exactly? We never see them on Wednesday night, do we?
Rachel: Fabiana requested a card, and we see her an Laure (who also is working in a co-working group) occasionally...
Nebuleuse has 3 cards (and maybe has still never paid).
Are there any other people that are in this situation?
Should we get them to pay?
This could be another test for Ana's billing method.

Luc sends an invoice to La Nébuleuse (Kouros et nicolas (at) lanebuleuse.ch) pour 3 cartes pour 12 mois Octobre 2017-Septembre 2018. Ask for the card number (put board in cc).
Luc checks whether BangBang girls paid for the membership. Give access if relevant.

  • For those issues concerning the organization of this visit, I will centralize the comunication till she comes, so we don't give confusion, alright? Then Rachel, as our biosecurity officer, will take the lead and you all can talk to her
  • We should update NOW the board with our situation regarding P1 activities: "After the great moving to the new space, we restart the process of getting the nicest P1 ever! Regarding the Manuela Ocaña (Collaboratrice scientifique, PhD, Département fédéral de l'intérieur DFI, Office fédéral de la santé publique OFSP):" Les instituts, les entreprises et les organisations qui utilisent des organismes génétiquement modifiés, pathogènes ou exotiques en milieu confiné sont ainsi tenus de notifier leur activité (classes 1 et 2) ou de demander une autorisation (classes 3 et 4)." Nous allons pas depasser la classe 2, du coup nous avons besoin de faire une notification et pas demander une autorization (voir dessous comment on va la faire et comment Daniel et Rachel ils vont faire la description des activités"
  • When is this description gonna be finished? Set a date please --> then let me know.
