Thanks, Ayden. I agree with Donna, the starting point should be the previous comment to ensure we don't contradict either the scope or substance of that input.

Best wishes,

Heather

Thank you for these comments, Donna. If there are no objections raised on this list, I will notify the SCBO in 48 hours time that we should begin formulating a comment on the proposed Reserve Fund replenishment strategy, mindful of the SCBO/Council's mandate, and we will then report back to Council in due course on our progress.

Best wishes,

Ayden Férdeline

As a starting point, let’s remind ourselves of the Council’s previous comment about the Reserve Fund.

 

I agree with Paul that it may be difficult to reach a Council position on this issue, but there is no harm in identifying what we could agree on.

In that case, which I understand, it can be broad statement of concerns, to state that we are aware of the impact that it may have, that we are following it, even if we don’t have a specific “way forward” with consensus to propose regarding the reserve funds.

I think it would be difficult to reach a Council position on this issue, since there may be very difference views on this point within the GNSO itself.  

 

Best,

Dear all,

 

As Xavier mentioned during our Council meeting yesterday, a new consultation opportunity has opened for comments on the proposed Reserve Fund replenishment strategy.

 

The Standing Committee on Budget and Operations (SCBO) has a group of Councillors and Subject Matter Experts from across the GNSO who have gotten into the rhythm of meeting regularly as a part of our review of the proposed FY19 Budget and Operating Plan.

 

Given this momentum, I was wondering whether or not the Council would like the SCBO to prepare a draft comment in response to this consultation opportunity? Thank you.

 

Kind regards,

 

Ayden Férdeline 

Chair, SCBO
