On 2 March, the Chaplain-President, Vice-President and Secretary attended a full meeting of the Vlaamse Interlevensbeschouwelijke Dialoog (the official dialogue between the Flemish Government and the recognised faiths), hosted this time by the Protestants and Evangelicals. The main topics for discussion were the process for the official recognition of individual churches, synagogues, mosques and meeting-houses, and the summary of the formal statement on poverty in Flanders being prepared by the VILD for public distribution.
