Then I do not understand how they could refer to something for which( in their view ) there is no established definition and reject a Rec. using that non existent basis Regards Kavousd Sent from my iPhone On 15 Dec 2015, at 16:11, Paul Rosenzweig <paul.rosenzweig@redbranchconsulting.com <mailto:paul.rosenzweig@redbranchconsulting.com> > wrote: Since the Board acknowledges in its comments that there is currently no legal definition of “global public interest” the only reasonable answer to this question is “the judgment of 2/3rd of the Board.” To which I would respond that the “judgment of the CCWG-A” reflecting a rough consensus of the community is a far better judge of what is in the global public interest than the what 2/3rd of the Board say …. Indeed, the exercise of the Board’s “big foot” veto on GPI grounds is a textbook example of why greater accountability is needed.

As raised in the CCWG call today, we are kindly requesting if the Board could provide our group with a response to the following question. What are the legal basis and criteria by which the Board considers a given Recommendation to be contrary to the Global Public Interest ? Clarification would really be useful to help our group, but also the Chartering Organizations, to check our own recommendations. Thank you for sharing this email with the Board, and happy to expand on the question if need be.
