Mandate of the MarinERA Programme Managers Forum (MPM):
Over this first 18 months of the MarinERA project, the composition of the MPM has shown to be very similar to that of the Technical Committee (with the exception of three partners: Belgian Federal Public Planning Service Science Policy – partner 12, Malta Council for Science and Technology – partner 14 and Polish Ministry of Scientific Research and Information Technology – partner 15). To avoid duplication and unnecessary multiplication of meetings, the MPM as it stood has been disbanded, and those three partners not involved directly in the Work Packages are invited to attend TC meetings. This facilitates increased efficiency and the delivery of decisions of the project in a more timely and cost–effective manner.
