As a consequence, and to ensure efficiency, the GAC finds it appropriate for the ATRT-3 to consider such potential overlap situations when reviewing the scope and in planning its activities. </span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> </span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Best regards</span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Thomas</span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US> </span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>Thomas Schneider</span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>Chair</span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>ICANN Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC)</span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>----------------------------------- <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>pp/ Olof</span><span lang=DE-CH><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=DE-CH><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
