Chair:
Ladies en gentlemen, welcome. I open the 10th meeting of our Department.
I’d like to extend a special word of welcome to Ms Fiora from the Board, who has kindly
agreed (vriendelijk afgesproken) to inform us about management’s restructuring plans.
I see that we have quorum, so I propose we wait for another couple of minutes.
I see that we don’t yet have a quorum, and so we can’t proceed (voortgaan). We’ll have to

have received no message from Mr Angelo.

I’d like to confirm the agenda for this meeting.
I don’t have any items to add to the agenda.
The following items should be added (worden toegevoegd) to the agenda. I suggest we insert it
between items 7 and 8, as it may influence our discussion of item 8.
I would like to propose (voorstellen) a change to the agenda: since we have to decide today on
whether to invest in the new machine (we moeten vandaag beslissen over de vraag om te investeren in
de nieuwe machine), I suggest we discuss it after item 8, and deal with items 6, 7 and 8 as quickly
as possible.
I suggest we drop item 7, as the information relating to is has not arrived yet. 2
