RE: [bc-gnso] FY13 Operating Plan and Budget Comment

[Marilyn Cade <marilynscade@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for doing this,Chris. 
I understand from the CSG Budget Group call, which you chair [ISPCP, IPC, BC} 
that it would be useful to have members have a high level understanding on the 
broader categories, so that we can have a sense of BC priorities. 
I did want to ask though, about the lack of detail in the budget, such as the 
inability to find the Fellowship Program as a detailed item; or the 
communications budget; totals for salary/benefits for staff, etc. Were those 
not detailed in the Operating Plan and Budget? 
I recognize that the Fellowship Program has had limited contribution to the BC 
specifically, except in two cases, but it is a program that the BC supports, 
and has interest in strengthening how it does contribute to supporting more 
small business participants from developing countries.

Dear BC Members, Please find attached comments that I have submitted on the 
FY13 Operating Plan and Budget.We anticipate that the BC and the CSG will 
submit more detailed comments in the ‘reply round’  which opens tomorrow until 
the 15th June. I have asked a lot of clarification questions and drawn on 
material from our Framework Budget submission as I don’t think it was 
adequately addressed at that time.   I think we should  focus on the 25 
individual project comments in the reply round.  Best regards,  Chris Chaplow
