- approved

- Pico: requires willingness of seniors
- Lorenzo: knowledge transfers from senior to junior, but also vice versa
- Ben: not ECR and not senior, still no clue about some parts of Geant4
- Lorenzo: should not be afraid to use the committee for the benefit of young members
- Pico: what do ECR committees do in other collaborations?
- Lorenzo: main idea is to have representative to make SB aware of topics (grants, imbalance of person power)
