Perhaps Mary would like to address this question in the first instance.

Failing that I would be happy to respond by reference to the BGC's Report and 
recommendations and ICANN's public trust function and role and by reference to 
the other relevant organizations we looked at where in the key examples all 
lists and all groups are open.

Team,

Can someone explain to me why {GROUPs} would want to open their Policy 
Committee Meetings to the public?

I think Mary's suggestions are excellent and I support either version. My view 
is these committees ---where all the crucial work of the Groups is done -most 
definitely need transparency, term limits and openness, real rotation of 
members and leaders as well as disclosure of work and work product -at least 
within the Group.  This is not currently happening in some Groups and goes to 
the very heart of all reforms.

Best regards,

Hello,

Mary sent her suggestions and there are two alternative:

#1: "Policy Committee meetings shall be open for attendance by all {GROUP} 
members, and, subject to any express provisions otherwise in a {GROUP} Charter, 
shall also be open for attendance by the public."

#2: "Policy Committee meetings shall be open for attendance by all {GROUP} 
members, and, subject only to the conditions specified in this Section 8(b), 
shall also be open for attendance by the public. These conditions are either 
that (i) the {GROUP} Charter expressly restricts attendance at a particular 
type of Policy Committee meeting; or (ii) the Policy Committee decides, in its 
reasonable discretion, that the nature of a particular Policy Committee meeting 
is such that attendance should be limited only to {GROUP} members. Provided 
that, in the case of condition (ii), the Policy Committee shall inform all 
{GROUP} members of its decision to restrict attendance at the meeting as soon 
as practicable and in any case prior to the commencement of the meeting, and it 
shall further use reasonable efforts to make public any decisions taken at that 
meeting as soon as possible thereafter."
