Dear Professor Goldik,: Dear Zeev

In conjunction with our previous talks with You and the President of ESA, Sir Peter
Simpson and following your meeting with representatives of the Polish Ministry of
Health, the Director of the Centre of Medical Examinations, the National Advisor in
Anaesthesiology and Intensive Therapy, and the Board of the Polish Society of
Anaesthesiology and Intensive Therapy, I am declaring readiness to introduce
written part of the European Diploma in Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care
(EDA) as a part of the Polish National Exam in Anaesthesiology and Intensive
Therapy since autumn, 2008.

Last Monday the Council of the Netherlands Society of
Anaesthesiology has discussed the modernized national training
program of Anaesthesiology, of which I had the privilege to be
one of the architects. Starting the implementation of this program,
it was realized that the old exam structure had to be renewed as
well. Then the discussion was started whether the European
Diploma would not be a very good alternative.

The result is that the Council last week decided to recommend the
Board of the Netherlands Society to adopt the European Diploma.
