Farewell to Pompidou Group chief
Chris Luckett, Head of the Pompidou Group’s secretariat since 1985, attended his last meetings with the organisation at the end of 2008, before retiring. The events, organised from 25–26 November in Warsaw, included a meeting of the group’s Permanent correspondents and a conference assessing the group’s activities at the midpoint of its 2007–10 work programme (theme: ‘Are we able to meet policymakers’ needs?’). Participants attending the meetings saluted Mr Luckett’s commitment, professionalism and diplomacy in heading the group for over 20 years. The EMCDDA, attending the meetings, acknowledged the historical importance of the Pompidou Group as well as Mr Luckett’s work in building an excellent partnership between the two organisations.
