Governing bodies - HUMANE COMMITTEES

HUMANE is leaded by two bodies :

The Round Table ( RT )
The Executive Committee ( EC )

THE ROUND TABLE

The original planned name for HUMANE was the European Round Table of senior administrators. We have retained this name (and, wherever possible, the physical reality) for meetings of our main representative committee.

Each participating country has at least one place, with additional seats depending on the number of members in a given country:

  8 members = 2 seats
 
24 members = 3 seats
 
40 members = 4 seats

In addition, some special arrangements have been made to reflect national features - e.g., for France there is a representative of the agents comptables.

The members of the Round Table are elected by national colleagues, for periods of 3 years.The RT has to maintain at least one annual meeting, normally in spring. 

THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

The Executive Committee (EC) has eight seats, including the Chairman. Six of these are taken by Round Table members representing constituencies based on geographical and cultural groupings of the member countries. ESMU has a representative in EC.

The EC meets 3-4 times per year, usually in a Seminar venue.

On Oct -08 the EC is formed by
