We are pleased to invite you to the next Plenary Meeting of the Hospital Sector Social Dialogue Committee will be held on Friday 2 December 2011 at the Borschette Centre, Room AB 3C. It will start at 9h15 and end at 13h00.

The EPSU-HOSPEEM Steering Committee will meet as from 08h30 till 09h15.

It will be followed by a preparatory meeting for EPSU participants (separate trade union group meeting) from 09h15 till 10h15, venue and meeting room to be confirmed. We will then have the Plenary Meeting from 10h15 till 13h00.

We expect to have active interpretation to and from English, French, German and Swedish. We also have asked the European Commission to provide for passive interpretation for Finnish and Italian and this has been confirmed yesterday. However, we could not get Spanish interpretation as asked for.
