response only seems to focus on process, rather than substance. In other
words, it focuses on whether a PDP is required, and not whether the various
Stakeholder Groups/Constituencies agree with or endorse the
recommendations. Is this intentional? The Board is
likely to be more interested in the substantive response, although the
procedural one seems to be the focus of the response.
