The meeting began with a presentation by Bo Ahrén on the status of the ongoing investigation into how animal operations should be managed in the future and how we can achieve the savings that will be needed there to make room for new academic jobs etc in the future. Thereafter Mattias Brattström presented a proposal for changes in the governance of the Med-service, Library and ICT (BIKT) units, CCM and the University Veterinarian.
