So far, there has only been one volunteer for the small group described in the email message below. I believe that it is really important to get people that have different points of view regarding privacy and data protection so that we can develop questions for the Data Commissioners that will guide us in our deliberations going forward. The one volunteer is associated with the GAC Public Safety WG, which is very good. In my opinion we need at least one person each from groups like the IPC, the NCSG and the Contracted Party House. People from other groups are welcome as well but I especially believe it is critical to have people who have needs that may conflict with privacy and data protection restrictions. My hope as chair is that we can improve our understanding of data protection requirements as much as possible in Copenhagen and a key way of accomplishing that will be to ask constructive questions that address our concerns. Please note that this is a short term commitment. Our plan is to finalize the volunteers for the small group in our meeting on Wednesday, February 22. The small group would then be asked to work together to produce a proposed list of questions before our meeting on February 28 so that they can be discussed by the full WG in that meeting. Volunteers will NOT be expected to be formal representatives of the group they are associated with but hopefully they can solicit possible questions from their group as time permits, realizing that it is a short time frame. Please let me know if you have any questions. If you are willing to volunteer, please do so on this list before our WG meeting next week.

The proposed questions will be submitted to the WG for review prior to the 28 February meeting. We are seeking at least one (1) and no more than two (2) volunteers from each SG, Advisory Committee or interest group, to nominate themselves on-list by Monday, February 20. The small group will have one week to prepare a draft list of questions for WG consideration. Please feel free to consult with your colleagues to identify a person to represent your group in this effort. Volunteers should submit their names and the group they will represent to the WG email list. Chuck
