Excerpts from the ECT* Statutes

Article IV.

The ECT* Scientific Board is composed of 6 to 9 eminent scientists. Up to 8 members are identified as follows: first, the acting Board consults the Body of Associates of ECT* for suggestions; next, the Board considers the suggestions and makes a proposal which is then endorsed by the European Science Foundation through NuPECC. One additional member of the Board is identified by NuPECC to serve as liaison member. After the approval by ESF-NuPECC, the Director communicates the names of the members of the Scientific Board to the
CdA for appointment.
Members serve on the Board for periods of 3 years non-renewable starting on
the day of nomination by the CdA.
The Board elects a Chairman from amongst its members, who calls the Board to session and presides over it. The mandate of the Chairman is two years.
The Board meets at least twice a year and resolutions are decided by a simple majority of the members present at a session. The Chairman has a casting vote. A session of the Board may also be called upon the request of two or more members; for a session of the Board to be valid, at least 2/3 of the members must be present.
The Board is an inner body of ECT* and its own functions do not interfere with those of the Scientific Committee of the Foundation.

In particular, the functions of the Board are:

- to endorse on a yearly basis the programme of scientific activities with their expected overall cost and personnel requirements

- to establish research projects and long-term programmes

- to approve whatever changes in programmes and their relative budgets that are proposed by the Director

- to take the initiatives necessary to obtain, from National and European Scientific-administrative Institutions, additional financial resources

- to identify the Director and propose him to the CdA for appointment.

Article II.

The Director is responsible for the operation of the Centre. The Director is identified by the ECT* Scientific Board and appointed by the CdA with a three year mandate with the possibility of a single renewal.
The Director of the ECT* is not a member of the ECT* Scientific Board.

The Director represents ECT* on NuPECC and is a full member of NupECC.
The Director implements the scientific programmes defined by the Scientific Board on an annual or multi annual basis, as described in the following article 4.

Besides the widest autonomy of decision making to foster the scientific activities of the Centre, as approved by the Board, the Director has authority, duties and responsibilities regarding the handling of the budget of the Centre, the use of the respective facilities, and the coordination of the personnel.

In this role, the director presents to the CdA of the Foundation projects and objectives, and the corresponding budget. The Director maintains contacts with the National, European and International Organizations connected with the ECT*.

The Director submits an annual report on the state of the ECT*. The Director is responsible for public information regarding the ECT* and for the publication of reports on its scientific activities.
The Director will act according to the Statutes and the FBK administrative regulation, with the possibility to authorize expenses for services and supplies signing the corresponding contracts- and to assign professional tasks within the limit of thirty thousand euro.

The Director of the Centre is responsible for organizing the activities so as to attain the security standards imposed by the laws.
