Subject: [gnso-restruc-dt] (Q1,2) Questions needing further clarification from 
the board



The following questions are grouped together because they constitute my
understanding of the questions that need to be posed to the board SIC.
Other questions arising from the meeting will be sent in several other
following emails.  I will also send out a complete list of the questions
once I have compiled all of the emails.


Q1:  In Section 3.1.d NCSG changes recommended by CSG

A change was proposed changing from 6 NCSG representative to 3 NCSG
representatives?

Specifically change:

d. six representatives selected from the Non-Commercial & Individual
Stakeholder Group; and

to 

d. three representatives selected from the Non-Commercial & Individual
Stakeholder Group; and

Question for the Board SIC: Is the number of representatives to be
included from each of the Stakeholder Groups open for discussion?


------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q2: Names


In several CSG proposed changes, a change of name was proposed.  The
Proposed changes were:

- in section 3.1.d at the Stakeholder level: change the name of the Non
commercial SG to the Noncommercial and Individual SG.

- in section 3.3 a&b: at the House level 
  - from Non Contracted Party House to Users and Providers House
  - from Contracted Party to Contracted Parties and Suppiers.


The Board's recommendation included the names of both stakeholder groups
and the two houses that are currently being used. 

Question to Board/SIC: Are names open to change and if so by whom and
under what conditions?
