Philip, I certainly think that additional analysis could be helpful but I don't think that restarting the review of the transfer policy needs to be delayed while that happens. In fact, the review process could include such analysis as appropriate. As can be seen in the third document that was attached, the group that was formed identified several areas of the policy for which improvements might be useful. That would seem like a good place to start. Additional input could then be solicited from the community to expand or modify the areas and analysis and recommendations could follow. In my opinion, the best thing we can do is to restart the group with a well defined SoW and clear time constraints.

With regard to the three documents on considering the transfers process, is it just me, or is there a lack of quantified data here with respect to the questions raised. I fail to see how we can take a decision to proceed on any of the "whether" recommendations without such an analysis. Does this work exist? Philip
