<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Marie,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for your email. Your request for a deferral is noted, and we can discuss further during tomorrow’s meeting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As a reminder to all Councilors, as the manager of the GNSO policy development process, our role is to vote on whether the process and procedures and charter were followed by the EPDP WG. It is not an opportunity to re-litigate discussions
and decisions made by the EPDP WG itself. Any requests for deferral and voting should be considered in this important context.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, *<b>if</b>* there is a deferral to 4 March, there will be no further opportunity to defer Council’s vote on the motion; a vote will be required.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regards,<br>
Keith<o:p></o:p></p>
