<br>
before the last EL EX-Board meeting in early October I sent a letter to
Pierre Laurant (using his PCF mail account) which was discussed between the
individual members using our mail list and at the end signed by eight of us
from different countries. The letter deals with the problem of our formal
rights within the EL, reflecting our situation and making proposals how to deal
with in the near future. As of today there is neither a reply nor a
confirmation of receipt and so we sent the same letter to Giorgios
Karatsioubanis within the EL office in <st1:City w:st="on">Brussels</st1:City>
asking him to distribute the letter to all parties of the European Left and to
discuss this issue on the next meeting in <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Berlin</st1:place></st1:State>.<br>
<br>
We asked at the same time to include within the upcoming budget for
the year 2012 an amount of money for a meeting which should be organized
to discuss between us the way out of this situation and to organize
our work within the EL.<br>
<br>
<br>
Giorgios Karatsioubanis asked me to resent this letter to you as coordinator of
the EL Executive Board. I hope you will support our request indipendently from
the question would you be personaly in favour or not of the individual
membership.<br>
<br>
Thank's for that.<br>
<br>
Warm regards<br>
<br>
Norbert Hagemann<br>
