our members of the need to inform us of their e-mail addresses that can then be
                 included in our database

            75. We did publish a new List of Members which, alas, is already out of date because of
                 the many changes of home and e-mail address. Please note that this list should
                 not  be  conveyed  to  people  outside  the  Association  for  reasons  of
                 confidentiality.

            76. Fix new objectives, including:

                  a.  To  follow  closely,  within  FAFICS,  progress  on  medical  coverage  after
                      retirement, an area to which the UN General Assembly has accorded a great
                      deal  of  attention  for  many  years,  remembering  always  that  all  countries  are
                      faced with financial difficulties.

                  b.  To continue to be present, through FAFICS, in all relevant bodies, and to keep
                      you informed … for the best we hope.



            E.  THANKS

            77. We wish to thank those of our members who successfully organize get togethers,
                 such as the Nyon Group, led by Pauline Nicholls, that meets at the Café Cham’,
                 route  de  St.  Cergue  2,  Nyon,  and  the  Group  in  Ferney-Voltaire,  led  by  Carl
                 Freeman, who meet on the last Monday of each month at midday at the Restaurant
                 Voltaire, 10 Grand’Rue, Ferney-Voltaire. A place to meet and a little goodwill is all
                 that is needed. The Shakespeare Group of members inspired by English literature
                 also continues to meet regularly, under the leadership of Jack Martin

            78. The Association is also able to function thanks to volunteers outside the Committee,
                 translators, interpreters for the General Assembly, and our IT expert. A warm thanks
                 to all of them.

            79. We also express our deep gratitude to:

                  -   The Director-General of UNOG

                  -   The UNOG Administration

                  -   The Security Service

                  -   The  Printing  and  Distribution  Services  who  administer  the  dispatch  of  the
                      Bulletin

                  -   The IT Service

                  -   The Association wishes to renew its gratitude and support to the staff of the
                      UNJSPF Office at Geneva

                  -   And once again to stress the active participation of the sister associations in
                      Geneva  in  the  work  of  the  Committee,  for  which  we  extend  our  warmest
                      thanks.
