<p>Dear all,</p>
<p>please be advised that Mikuláš Peksa does not speak on behalf of the board of the European Pirate party in this matter. There has been no board decision to call a meeting in Prague on 18th and 19th of November 2017, and mr Peksa has not been delegated the authority to call such a meeting.</p>
<p>This action of his was a rogue action taken by an individual. I do not doubt that he acted in good faith, believing that he was entitled to call a meeting without the consent or even discussion with the rest of the board, but as the matter stand this is clearly in violation of the statues of the association.</p>
<p>Any meeting taking place there should not be recogniced as a council meeting of the association formed in Brussels in 2014.</p>
<p>Please allow the board to get back to you all regarding how the association will proceed.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<pre>Mattias Bjärnemalm

Dear council members,
Respecting the article 16 (6) of the Statues, on behalf of the Board, I
hereby invite you to a council meeting.
The council meeting will be held on the 18th and 19th of November 2017
in Prague at Česká pirátská strana, Řehořova 943/19, Praha 3, Czech
Republik.
We, all the Board members, deeply regret that article 14 (7) of the
Statues was violated as the Council meeting did not take place during
2016. Please support this very last opportunity to organise a meeting in
2017.
Looking forward to see you in Prague!
Best regards,
Mikuláš Peksa
Board member
European Pirate Party
