Financial Data
Closed financial year
Jan 2014 - Dec 2014
Lobbying costs for closed financial year
350,000€
Other financial info
EurEau's annual expenditure for 2014 was 650,000 Euros.
I estimate a figure of around 300,000 Euros because of the following reasons:
EP Water Group membership: 5,000
Communication agency fees: 85,000
Total staff costs were 390,000 and 50% of this is for activities under the register so: 195,000
Total operational costs were 55,000 and 50% was for activities under the register, so: 27,5000
Office costs are total 88,500 and 50% was for activities under the register so: 44,250
So, costs under the register are estimated to be 356,840 Euros
