Discussion of important questions In addition, please make an appointment for a cooperation meeting with the Central Tasks Directorate, Section ZA 12, Ms. Kocwin, Tel.: 0203 280-1199. In this meeting, which will be held at the Presidium, all questions relating to the planned meeting will be discussed and clarified. This ensures clarity and legal certainty for all parties involved in advance.
