  • The board is responsible for running the everyday business of the user-group (administration, working on goals, supporting projects and vlunteers) and the strategic planning.
  • The board must produce a detailed report on its running the everyday business of the user-group and the strategic planning at least once a year, which is to be accepted by all members with simple majority.
