Hi.
This is a personal input from me and not an input from the Board.
Regarding the responses to the Board's Track 2 and 3 comments on collective responsibility, I think it may be useful to apply the frame of accountability that guided the work of CCWG-Accountability (i.e., participation, transparency, appeal and redress). If within each SO/AC (including for engagement in EC processes), the standards for participation, transparency, appeals and redress apply, then the robustness of decision-making rises and the quality of the aggregate result rises. This to my mind would enhance "collective responsibility."
The Ombudsbeing (as an alternative to Ombudsman or woman :) can be an additional part of the appeals and redress process as a safeguard in case internal SO/AC processes are not sufficient or failed or preferred by affected community members. I think allowing for the Ombuds to be invoked in EC-related matters is generally fine.

I believe each SO/AC sets its own standards on participation, transparency, appeal and redress. The collective "average" on standards could rise with the proposed learning and sharing of best-practices across community and SO/ACs. What's important is that the SO/ACs are open to it and it seems from the public comments responses that they generally are. That's a good start.
I hope this is useful.
Best regards,
Rinalia
