1.1 Sources:
Membership Fees
- Voting rights, ratification privileges (what's that?) and travel reimbursements are limited to member parties paying it's membership fee within the actual period
- Members that have failed to pay their membership fees for 2 consecutive years are considered to have left the PPEU automatically
- Don't let pirate parties buy more influence as some may have more money → But parties which get more voting weight also pay proportionally more.
1.2 Measures:
We need a donation scheme and target individuals. Donations shall be divided by general donations and specific targeted MEPs Member party fees shall not be very high, rather trying to get donations from people. We need to coordinate calls for donations to finance the European elections. Perhaps we might be getting a part of PPI's fees from the European Pirate Parties. We should also accept and ask for donations in kinds.
1.3 Costs:
The PPEU could distribute money to the Pirate party mebers for EU campaigning and to organize conventions, assemblies and conferences on European issues. The PPEU may distribute administrative costs (travel expenses etc.). We might need to buy translations. We could book rooms for simultaneous translations in the EU Parliament. We might need to pay a lawyer for examining the statutes in the country of founding / expertise and to do all formalities for us.
2. People
- Each Pirate Party needs to send at least one delegate to PPEU.
- There will be needed people to staff the Coucil and the Board and if wanted or needed, other positions or organs.
- There will be at least needed 2 coordinators, a treasurer, auditors and translators.
- For public relations we need a spokesperson and a press team.
3. Time:
- There needs to be a time slot on the Pirate parties' General Assemblies to elect delegates.
- The delegate(s) have to attend Board/Council meetings regularly.
- Pan-European discussions and voting procedures may be time-consuming.
Donations
Dissolution
- (Unclear:) To convert this PPEU into a participative and basic-democratic Political Party at European Level
- Preventing scope creep over time:
- Killswitch on the national assembly level, if the move into the political terrain or
- Only found the organisation for a certain time or
- Restrict competencies very formally
