Richard,

 

We will not endorse it, but we will be citing it and include the agreed
ideas in the body of our report. All the inputs will be included as annexes
and our recommendations will be written taking into account the agreed ideas
coming from those inputs.

Given that, are we also going to cite/ quote in the body of our report the
other inputs received?
