Alessandro:\\
    - trip to Czech Republic in August came out with a great result. I do have now a personal FIO Bank banking account linked to PPEU Bank account. I already tested and I was able to reimburse Florian and Mikulas expenses for Pirati (BTW Pirati already donate to PPEU the equivalent, so no expenses from PPEU)\\
    - I have asked the board to express its opinion about Florian's reimbursement regarding his trip'to Germany in order to have a proper in person meeting to prepare new IT team (Mikulas participated as well). The board majority was in favour (Florian and I abstained) so I will reimburse both of them in the incoming days (total cost will be approx. 700 €), using the proper line of budget approved (Board extraordinary expenses), that is 1000 € for 2024 and we've never used before\\ 
    - I am preparing a "call for meeting" for all PPs Treasurer to be hold before next Council Meeting in Novembre (hopefully in presence in Prague next Nov. 23th-24th) as introductory report before the 2024 and 2025 budgets, including a broadly discussion about new funding methods and platforms and membership fees for 2025\\

Mattias Bjärnemalm\\
I went to Iceland and met with the Icelandic Pirate Party on August 29-31. They had planned a conference for Pirate Parliamentarians from across Europe on the 31st, but it got cancelled two weeks before, due to low attendance. \\
- They are hoping to do another try at organzing a Pirate Parliamentary conference in the spring 2026.\\
- They will have elections at the latest in September 2025, but most likely in May that year. They will look into setting up a system for pirates to go there to volunteer during the elections.\\
- One of their MPs, Björn Leví Gunnarsson, is considering running for one of the two empty European Pirate Party board positions that will be filled in November. \\
- I advised them to try to set up some bilateral collaboration with Alternativet in Denmark (who has 5 members in the Danish Parliament), as a way of strengthening the PPEU links to that party.\\
