MEETINGS
 
1. The 24th Session of the CIE
The 24th Session of the CIE was held from 24th to 26th June 1999, at Warsaw University of Technology, Warsaw, Poland. In Division 2, there were 2 presented papers, 9 presented posters, and 13 display posters. The papers were published in the Proceedings, 24th Session of CIE-Warsaw'99.
 
2. Workshop on Photometry of Flashing Lights
The Workshop took place on June 25, 1999, as part of the 24th Session of CIE. The workshop was jointly organized by Div. 2 (Y. Ohno) and Div. 1 (K. Sagawa) to discuss issues of human vision aspects as well as physical measurements of flashing-lights. It was held for two and a half hours with about 40 participants, having seven introductory talks, followed by open discussion for about 40 minutes. The final report of the workshop was published in the Proceedings II, 24th Session of CIE-Warsaw'99.
 
 
3. 1999 Technical Committee Meetings
In conjunction with 24th Session of the CIE , the following ten technical committees met on June 28 and 29, 1999 at the same venue. The minutes of these TC meetings are to be distributed to the TC members by the TC chairpersons. Brief reports on these TCs are included in the Division 2 Meeting minutes below.

4. 1999 Division 2 Meeting
The 1999 CIE Division 2 meeting took place on June 30, 1999, at Warsaw University of Technology, Warsaw, Poland, in conjunction with the 24th Session of the CIE. The minutes of the Division 2 meeting were compiled by the Secretary and distributed on September 1, 1999, which is attached in the next section.
