size=2>[Gomes, Chuck] The way this is worded, it result in a stakeholder
group with lots of constituencies getting most of the funds while those with few
constituencies receiving few funds. In other words, it would be
possible for a bunch of small constituencies to receive more travel funding than
a large constituency that may represent many more stakeholders than the group of
small constituencies. I suspect that that was not the intent, so I
suggest changing 'Constituencies' to 'stakeholder
groups'. </FONT></SPAN></SPAN></P>
