Attached please see my “Issues Sheet” comment on the 6 draft Final Report topics mentioned below. Please note that it is very unclear to me how the right to challenge changes in the AGB that have a “material impact” on the Applicant (listed as Recommendation xx (rationale 3) on page 15 fits into the following: (1) Predictability Framework – do we mean Applicants can challenge determinations coming out of the Predictability Framework processes? (2) Our new Appeals framework – right now appeals are tied to specific evaluations and objections. The Recommendation says applicants can challenge “substantive changes” in the AGB. Other than Request for Reconsideration, what is the mechanism you intend when an Applicant wants to challenge a “substantive change in the AGB which materially affects the applicant”?
