Keep in mind that the client committee is for selecting and interacting with the legal expert(s), not for preparing the questions. All of us will have input regarding the questions. If we add the author of each major proposal, the client team will become too large in my opinion. The larger the client team is the more expensive the consultation will be.

Indeed Donna, I couldn't agree with you more, although to ensure that all these additional matters re 'trust' are properly framed and dealt with in a timely fashion, I would have thought calling on say Alan Greenberg and Paul Szyndler to contribute via serving on the client committee would have been wise

Hi Jonathan

I have no objection to the committee as you propose, but it was obvious from the RFP3(b) call this morning that we may have more questions related to ‘trusts’ that we would like some answers to.

Not sure that this impacts the composition of the committee, but it may be that we have more questions to be incorporated into any work effort.

Thanks,

Donna

Subject: [CWG-Stewardship] Legal Advice - Client Committee

All,

As you know, legal advice to the CWG is on the critical path for our work. It is now both essential and urgent to get the ball rolling.

To this extent, and as discussed at our recent meeting, we require a client committee which represents the group, has legal expertise and is available to brief and work with the lawyers.

From the volunteers, we had two lawyers make themselves available (Greg & Maarten) and so, together with the co-chairs, we will work with this small team of four in the first instance.

1. Greg Shatan (Partner at Abelman Frayne & Schwab)

2. Maarten Simon (General Counsel at SIDN)

3. Lise Fuhr (Co-chair)

4. Jonathan Robinson (Co-chair)

We believe that this will keep us appropriately qualified, sufficiently fleet footed and closely connected to work and requirements of the CWG.

Thank-you,

Jonathan & Lise

CWG Co-Chairs
