RE: [gnso-osc-csg] OSC-CSG Work Team Work Plan Task 1, Subtask 1

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't had time to resond to SS's suggested change.  Please note that his 
change substantially changes the wording.  The existing wording deals with 
criteria for new constituencies while his wording deals with membership in 
constituencies.  These are very different things.  It could be that we should 
discuss both if they both are consistent with Board recommendations but I 
haven't had time or access to do that.

Dear Work Team Members,

We have had a very helpful discussion on the email list that has produced
several recommendations to amend the language in Task 1, Subtask 1, of our
work plan.  Here are the recommendations:

1.  S.S. recommends changing:


"1.  Develop guidelines for defining admission decision procedures for a new
constituency for each stakeholder group."  to:

"1.  Develop guidelines for defining admission decision procedures for a new
member for each constituency."



2.  Victoria noted that the language she suggested and that we all agreed
to was:



"Develop guidance, rules or principles for participation..." to replace
"template for admission decision procedures..."



3.  Olga and Michael suggested that there could be two items -- a revised
item 1 and a new item 2 as follows:



"1.  Develop guidelines for defining admission decision procedures for a new
constituency to a stakeholder group." and

"2. Develop guidelines for defining admission decision procedures for a new
member for each constituency."



I would like to suggest a way to combine these recommendations, whereby we
adopt the recommendation made by S.S., but keep the existing item 1, as
suggested by Olga and Michael, and also change the text as suggested by
Victoria.  Here is the suggested text:



"1. Develop guidance, rules or principles for participation in a new
constituency for each stakeholder group." and

"2. Develop guidance, rules or principles for participation for new members
in a constituency. "



I welcome your comments and suggestions.  Thank you.



Best regards,



Julie
