The Steering Group is industry led and it is empowered by the Plenary to decide the strategy, work programs and the ETP’s main areas of activity of ALICE-ETP. It may decide on the creation of Task Forces to address specific activities informing on this to the Plenary. The Steering Group proposes research and innovation challenges to the Commission as input for the HORIZON 2020. The Plenary will be informed on the decisions made by the Steering Group.
Working rules:
The Steering Group meets 2-3 times per year or otherwise as required by the Chair of the Plenary and the Steering Group. Steering Group decisions will be taken by consensus whenever possible. Each Member of the Steering Group has one vote and decisions will be taken on the basis of a two thirds majority of votes in case consensus cannot be achieved.
Composition:
Steering Group members need to be decision-makers from Industry (associations, big companies and SMEs), Universities or Research institutions, and three representatives from the Mirror Group. The Steering Group consists of not more than 25% of the members and with a Maximum of 30 members including the representatives of the Mirror Group.
The industry representatives must constitute at least 2/3 of the total Steering Group members. Shippers and logistics service providers are the primary group of companies addressed. They should come from the following areas, among others:
• Shippers:
