[bc-gnso] Re: Council voted to approve Charter for CCWG today

[Gabriela Szlak <gabrielaszlak@xxxxxxxxx>]

All,

I wanted to publicly thank Steve and David for their support to Susan and I
on the Accountability CCWG Charter discussions on Council today and Ron as
chair of the SCI WG for his support on the SCI motion that was also adopted
today at the Council as well.

It is a pleasure to work with the support and collaboration of this amazing
BC team.

Thank you,
Gabi
