Conclusion


• Present situation: Difficult: no contract negotiations possibleReason: weaknesses of the proposalImprovements needed (near and mid-term future)

• Two possible ways to contract negotiations:Spring 2004: Letter to the Commission: „Fulfillment of

recommendations.....“Fall 2004: Re-submission of the proposal

(intermediate network????)

• Our Proposal in either case: Strengths and weaknesses need to be evaluatedDetailed concerns (Networks etc.) need to be dispelled Who should be involved (NuPECC, Writing committee, EURONS and

Activity coordinators, External referees….)?



Questions to NuPECC:


• How to deal with the present situation? any suggestion or novel idea

• What can NuPECC do nownow? Push "politicians"? Concerted action of the „big“ laboratories or of countries?

• What to do in future? (Design study, FP7,...)Restriction to top quality (evaluation and selection process)Define and express prioritiesClearer statements to the EC
