1. ICFA Report to FALC February 2016 to August 2016 J. Mnich (DESY)

2. ICFA Meeting August 7, 2016

3. New Mandate for LC
At the February meeting ICFA decided to continue the LC structure beyond 2016
F. Gianotti, N. Lockyer, J. Mnich and M. Yamauchi were charged to work out a new mandate for the Linear Collider Collaboration (LCC) and the Linear Collider Board (LCB)
Draft was discussed and – with minor modifications – approved on August 7

4. New Mandate for LCB/LCC
Main ideas behind new mandate:
As little changes as necessary
keep names of LCB and LCC
Make it leaner:
no Project Advisory Committee (PAC) anymore
no regional directors anymore
Keep the four directors incl. three associated directors
ILC, CLIC and Physics & Detectors
and optional deputy director

5. New Mandate for LCB/LCC
Main purpose over the next years:
Oversight on worldwide R&D efforts
relevant R&D (mostly) done through other projects
Keep the successful close collaboration and synergy between ILC and CLIC
Promote LC in politics and general public
thus establish close links to e.g. KEK ILC promotion office,
CLIC collaboration and
Outreach (communicators)
Keep possibility for common fund
after endorsement by LCB, approval through FALC

6. New Mandate for LCB/LCC

7. New Mandate for LCB/LCC
Linear Collider Board:
Keep structure as it is
5 members from each of the 3 regions
plus chair
Regions nominate their members
ICFA appoints members & chair
Duration of LCB/LCC mandate:
to be reviewed by ICFA on a regular basis, at least after three years
Next step:
fill the boxes with names

8. New IUPAP Working Group on Accelerator Science
Other topics
New IUPAP Working Group on Accelerator Science
more general, beyond HEP
close links to ICFA
ICFA panels
new panel on sustainable accelerators and colliders
review of ICFA panels, mandate,membership, duration ongoing
