Hi Chuck,<br>
<br>
I have no problem adding 'by 27 June' to the end of the last sentence <br>
as this is the date indicated in the plan, though I thought the last <br>
sentence had already covered it by stating.<br>
<br>
"... request(s) that constituencies and nomcom appointees begin the <br>
task of naming representatives to<br>
serve in the two Standing Committees as defined in the Top Level Plan.<br>
<br>
Or are you suggesting anther change I am not understanding?<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
<br>
a.<br>
