<DIV>Dear council colleagues,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope you’ve returned safely and could take some rest from the Marrakech
meeting.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I’d like to call to your mind that on the occasion of the public council
meeting I’ve withdrawn the motion on the GNSO Review WP
Feasibility&Prioritization since from the discussion it became obvious that
more SG/C-internal information exchange was needed before submitting the
material to the OEC of the Board.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The next council call where the motion could be discussed is scheduled on
14 April with the motion submission deadline on 04 April. This counts a bit more
than 2 weeks from now – with the Easter holidays in between. Therefore I would
highly appreciate you initiating talks in your related SG/C. Please enter any
question/comment to the list you may have regarding the (see attached)</DIV>
