<p>HI Emily,</p>
<p>I agree with Maureen on this statement. I do not like the word
Small in the definition. Is there another way to describe this as
the definition in the charter of consensus is not what we have
here? On all other recommendations we can use the word consensus
but not on the mechanism chosen <br>
</p>
<p> If looking at the poll results. We see that 7 people voted for
A, 4 for B and 3 for C so it seem that there were an equal number
of votes for 'NOT" A as there were votes "FOR" A thus we cannot
say a small majority disagree. We can only say that there was a
preference for Mechanism A but that there was an equal preference
for not A.</p>
<p>So we cannot say there is a consensus on the type of mechanism,
we can say there is a preference? <br>
</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Best,</p>
<p>Judith<br>
</p>

<div>The more that I see the statement of "small minority", the
more I cannot agree with the "small" being included there. </div>
<div>If you are still asking, my vote goes to removing "small"
from the consensus definition so that it reads "a position
where a minority disagrees, but a majority agree" </div>
