Thanks Marika, I think it would be good for the Council to know more. If this is a Board initiative, it may also be a useful topic for discussion with them in Marrakesh.

I believe this is a session that is being facilitated by the Board Organisational Effectiveness Committee to provide an opportunity to explore topics of a structural nature that were not covered by the GNSO Review, but I am happy to try and find out more (or stand corrected if I got this wrong).
