<div>In theory it is the GNSO Council that has adopted the charter, but I guess this is on behalf of the GNSO as the GNSO acts through the Council, so I think your suggestion would work as well.</div>

<div>Hi Wolf-Ulrich -</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’ll let Marika respond to your first question.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>With regard to your second point, I think you are correct. Regarding statements, my only asks were that (1) the statement clearly indicate whether it is on behalf of an SG/C, or an individual Councilor, and (2) that statements be submitted in writing or
briefly summarized (1-2 sentences), rather than read in their entirety.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks—</div>

</div>
<div>J.</div>

<div>1. shouldn’t it read at the beginning of the letter “<span lang="EN-US" style="FONT-FAMILY: ; mso-fareast-language: en-us; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language: en-us; mso-bidi-language: ar-sa">On behalf of the GNSO ...” since
