Dear Colleagues,<br>
<br>
Many thanks to Jorge and Damien for these feedbacks. These questions
are indeed quite important and that is the reason why we requested
legal advice. <br>
<br>
In order to achieve better understanding of the questions (I must
admit I may not have fully grasped the underlying expectations) we
suggest to dedicate a part of the CCWG call on tuesday 16 June for
this clarification. Direct communication will certainly be a more
efficient process. <br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Mathieu<br>

</style>Dear Jorge, <br>
We will take another look at the questions if the co-chairs
direct. It would be helpful if the co-chairs would clarify the
questions. We are apparently not fully understanding them as
stated. <br>
Kind regards, Holly <br>

a lot for this document.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">After
having a first look into it, I would just like to observe
that -at least regarding the questions I have posed in
CCWG calls or on the list- they have only been partially
answered.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">To
be more specific:
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">1)
answer to question 4 misses the point an does not provide
a response to the dangers in asymmetrical composition
between GAC and the eventual GAC-UA;
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">2)
response to question 5 is also very incomplete as it does
not provide an answer to the very specific questions
contained in that question (<i>Question 5: As to the
operation of the UA, while nowadays the infringement or
differing interpretation of GAC rules of procedure (e.g.
operating principles) have no legal consequence, this
would change in case these rules would be applied to an
existing legal person (the UA)? What would be the
consequences of conflicts of interpretation between
members of the GAC-UA and/or of external stakeholders
affected by decisions of the GAC-UA? What legislation
would they apply? What would be the responsibilities of
GAC-UA officers and/or members affected by such a
conflict? How would they specifically protected from
liability? To what extent?</i>). </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">3)
response to question 6 contains a number of “desiderata”
(“so long”… “should not”… “we are confident”) instead of a
detailed legal analysis.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">…</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">Personally
I feel that answering quickly, reutilizing former
documents and/or linking generally to them is not really
the proper way forward. After having a look into several
inputs made in the public consultation, I see some of
these issues put forward by different contributors, which
is again a sign of them being serious points which need to
be addressed in depth.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D" lang="EN-US">Therefore,

accordingly</span></p>
