Olivier,

With regards to the accountability and transparency review the AOC states under 9.1 (e):  "assessing the policy development process to facilitate enhanced cross community deliberations, and effective and timely policy development".

At the last council meeting it was suggested by Tim Ruiz that since the Policy Development Process is already being reviewed as a result of the GNSO Review, it would be more timely to wait until the next Accountability and Transparency Review takes place in three years so as to measure the results of the revised Policy Development Process once implemented.

This seems to be rational from a viewpoint of saving workload but I wonder whether thougts from a broader prospective shall be raised by the review team. If that is the case I would appreciate your input.

Regards
Wolf-Ulrich
