Dear all, I have been asked to forward the latest list the Board may want to raise at the Tuesday morning meeting. Kind regards, Bart Dear Bart - can you let the ccNSO know that some of the topics suggested by other board members for Tuesday include the following: · Views of the ccNSO on the JAS · Progress on Framework of Interpretation including request for Board Liaison · CEO Search - what qualities do you think we ought to be seeking in a new CEO? what are your criteria for openness, transparency, etc. in the hiring process, bearing in mind considerations of responsibility to candidates and community, privacy, Board confidence, etc. · Ethics Guidelines - what are your top 3 concerns and proposals to address them (within the confines of the multistakeholder, voluntary participation model)? The ccNSO may get some questions back from Board members on these topics.
