ISRRT NEWSLETTER DECEMBER 2017 Treasurer’s report Stewart Whitley Treasurer Last April I reported that the Board had started the process of budget setting for 2018 which included determination of projects and workshops which will be held across the world in 2018. This process has now been completed and I am pleased to report that workshops have been approved to take place in: Africa 1: Quality Assurance and risk management in medical imaging – Dakar, Senegal Africa 2: Justification of Practice and Optimization of Radiation Protection – Mombasa, Kenya or Nairobi, Kenya Europe: ISRRT/EFRS workshop in radiation protection – Sofia (Bulgaria) Shortly workshop sponsors will be sorting dates and details with local institutions and member organisations as well as those supporting member organisations who will be contributing resources and finances to these projects. So watch this space! I am also pleased to report that the official accounts for 2016 have now been published and are available to inspect at the England and Wales Charity Commission website (Registration number 276218) Representatives of the ISRRT BOARD continue to attend important meetings of the IAEA and WHO which is made only possible with funding from member countries and other resources. Since my last report a representative has attended the IAEA Technical Meeting on Strengthening of Safety Culture in Radiotherapy through the Use of Incident Learning Systems, 10 to 13 October 2017 at the IAEA HQ, Vienna, Austria. Later this year ISRRT will be represented at the International Conference on Radiation Protection in Medicine: Achieving Change in Practice on 11-15 December 2017 in Vienna, Austria. Regarding PayPal Since my last report I am pleased to say that a number of associated membership subscriptions have been received via the ISRRT PayPal account facility for one and three years subscriptions. That said, now is the opportunity to visit the ISRRT website and join as an associate member! Corporate partnerships We are always looking for new Corporate sponsors and ideas to generate funds for all our activities. So I invite ideas that would generate valuable funds – please contact me at aswhitley@msn.com. All of our activities are funded by member societies, associate members, corporate sponsors and surplus income from World Congresses. The Board members are grateful for your on-going financial support. We look forward to the future and assure you of our ongoing commitment to be prudent and good stewards of our limited resources. n Stewart Whitley Treasurer 10
