Update, Outcomes and Action Items from the WT call Nov 19th  at 1900 UTC.

Firstly thank you to everyone who was able to make the call, so soon after many of you have recently returned from, or are starting off on, international travels.

Farzaneh, Steve and I want to take this opportunity to update the full list of Participants and Observers for our work on some of the outcomes and Action Items resulting from this call. 

In the call, we have:-

A. agreed to request that we formally shift our work to  Track 1 Timeline for CCWG WS2

B. created 2 small Sub Teams for drafting and review purposes of some of specific Work Tracks (as identified in our report to the CCWG in Hyderabad) purposes... 
  1. The 1st is a small Sub Team which requires at least 1 person from each SO/AC  who is 'knowledgeable"  on the accountability processes and practices of an SO /AC (it was noted that this could be a person who pens the replies from the SO or AC to our survey), we opened up for volunteers during the call and staff captured some names, but we seek other volunteers from both the Participant and the Observers on this list to ensure we have good balance and input to this ST's work.  
*PLEASE respond to this email by indicating your willingness to serve on the ST (and if you are unsure if your volunteering in the call was noted there is no harm in confirming again here.
        2. Another Sub Team to begin drafting of our Report to the CCWG,  to start  with this ST  can begin the work of a reorganisation/ redrafting exercise  for our next report based upon the existing preliminary DRAFT Report material we already have, and create a skeleton or framework for our Final Reporting...  This should we assume include new Dashboard materials as well as an integration of an adjusted timeline in keeping with our desired shift to a Work Track 1 timeline.

As with the 1st ST, we now call for volunteers from this list (Participants and Observers), who wish to be involved in this activity. *PLEASE respond to this email by indicating your willingness to serve on the ST. Again if you are unsure if you were recorded as a volunteer in the call please confirm with a message to this list in reply to this message. 

C. discussed and agreed upon the merits of having a briefing, specifically targeted to fit our mandate for a review and recommendation regarding the IRP for use for SO/AC activities; to this end it was proposed that we invite David McAuley the new Lead of the IRP-IOT to present to us at one of our next meetings (depending on his schedule), along with the Ombuds Office and the Rapporteur of the IOO-DT   

Finally  we need to note that our meeting next week on its usual rotation would clash with American Thanksgiving, so our next meeting will be held at 0500 UTC on Wed 23rd November where amongst other things we will complete the outstanding items from this weeks Agenda.
