Dear Bernard, All,

The ccNSO Council supports the suggestion to limit the scope of the ATRT3
review.

Kind regards,

Dear Bernard,

My apologies for missing you actually had a question at the end. I
interpreted the message as a description of the situation, which SSAC
already have said we are comfortable with.

The SSAC supports the proposal from the CCWG-A Co-Chairs that the scope of
ATRT3 be restricted to a review of the implementation of ATRT2
recommendations.

SO and AC Chairs,

This is a reminder that the CCWG-Accountability has not received any
replies to its December 2nd proposal (original message below) regarding the
scope of the upcoming ATRT3 review which will be publishing its call for
volunteers by the end of January.

As stated in the proposal there are a number of significant overlaps
between the work of the CCWG-Accountability and a standard ATRT review
which would cause an important duplication of work between these two
processes.

The CCWG-Accountability simply wishes to ensure that the SO's and AC's are
aware that if there is no request from the SO's and AC's to modify the
scope of the ATRT3 review prior to its launch that it will proceed as a
standard review.

The Co-Chairs of the CCWG-Accountability remain available to the SO's and
AC's for further discussions or answer any questions.
