The Founding Partners* of the EUnetHTA Collaboration and other publicly funded organisations from the EU Member States, EEA and EFTA countries that produce or contribute to HTA and are nominated by the respective Ministries of Health to participate in the Joint Action on HTA can become EUnetHTA Collaboration Partners.
For clarity and transparency, the mandate of each Partner organisation and a link to health policy in its country setting have to be described in detail. The official status of the organisation as being nominated by the Ministry of Health should be confirmed every 3 years.
The Plenary Assembly is comprised of the head of each of the EUnetHTA Collaboration Partner organisations or a person appointed by the head (one representative per Partner organisation).
* Organisations that sent to the EUnetHTA Secretariat by November 20 2008 a Declaration of Intent to establish the EUnetHTA Collaboration and that contributed financially to its operation in 2009 shall be deemed to have founded the EUnetHTA Collaboration and as such shall be Founding Partners.
