EMH officers to meet in Norway
20-11-2014

Hosted by Norsk Forening for Fartøyvern (The Norwegian Ship Preservation Association) members of the EMH Executive Committee, the Working Group as well as the Cultural, Safety, and Inland Waterways Councils will meet in Oslo, Norway, 22-23 November 2014. Several difficult subjects are on the agenda such as changing the EMH constitution and formulating action plans for the coming three years for the organization as such as well as for the councils.

Changing the EMH Constitution will serve to change EMH from being an informal network into a formal organization. This to enable EMH to act as a legal entity in order to be able to join for example EU projects, and to free the executive committee member for their present personal liability for EMH. Technically it is not possible just to change EMH from informal to formal; the informal association will have to be dissolved, and a new formal association must be founded.
