Thanks Keith.

I’ll speak with the BC and revert as soon as I can but a personal opinion: we need to be careful in framing any “back up plan”. We don’t want to give the impression that the timeline can be allowed to slip (witness other PDP issues there). This one has to be as on track as possible – we can’t give in to endless repetitive micro-detail debates here.

Thanks

Marie

Hello fellow GNSO Councilors,

Please see the attached letter from Cherine seeking an update on the EPDP and, also, the GNSO Council’s consideration of possible contingency plans in the event the EPDP misses its May 2019 deadline. We will need to discuss this letter and our potential response in the near future. 

Thanks and regards,

Keith
