Dear Keith,

On behalf of the BC, we would like to request that the Council vote on the Phase 1 EPDP Report be postponed until Monday 4^th March so as to permit the continuation of the very practical ongoing discussion within the EPDP Team on the unresolved policy recommendations.

Thanks in advance,

Scott & Marie
