News from the consortium

 

The consortium of the EU HEALTH GATEWAYS joint action even throughout the summer holidays remained busy in moving forward with all tasks and representing the joint action in important meetings.

An important achievement of the joint action comes from the maritime sector and is the approval of the General Assembly of the joint action, comprised by EUMS competent authorities, to publish a list of ships inspected and the ships that received grade “A” during the inspection. Moreover, the shipping companies will now receive a 24 hours’ notice prior to the inspection either from the competent authority or the work package 7 administration team instead of a 48hr notice.

QUIZ

What links to: Femme Fatale, Paul Erlich, Franz Schubert and The Great Pretender?

The Answer:........................................................
Why? ..................................................................

HINT: Franz Peter Schubert (1797 –1828) was an Austrian composer of the late Classical and early Romantic eras. Despite his short lifetime, Schubert left behind a vast oeuvre, including more than 600 secular vocal works (mainly Lieder), seven complete symphonies, sacred music, operas, incidental music and a large body of piano and chamber music. He was born in the Himmelpfortgrund suburb of Vienna, where his father gave him his first violin lessons and his older brother gave him piano lessons. In 1821, Schubert was granted admission to the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde as a performing member, which helped establish his name among the Viennese citizenry. He gave a concert of his own works to critical acclaim in March 1828, the only time he did so in his career. He died eight months later at the age of 31, the cause officially attributed to typhoid fever, but believed by some historians to be syphilis.
