[gnso-contactinfo-pdp-wg] Straw poll on number of options

[Dillon, Chris]

Dear Justine,

Yes; just to confirm - we did take note of last Thursday’s vote (also in the transcript) and you don’t need to vote again.

Regards,

Chris.

Dear Chris,

I trust you took note of the votes cast by WG members who were on last Thursday's call (just to confirm that I do not need to vote again)?

Many thanks,

Justine Chew

Dear colleagues,

During Thursday's call, we had a straw poll:
Are you in favor of having only one option in the initial report?
As you know, in the versions of the draft initial report until now there have been two options (recommendations for and against mandatory transformation), but if it is possible to have only one, the report will likely have a stronger effect. Whatever the result of the report, the arguments for and against will remain in it; this poll only concerns the options.
Please send your vote to the list if you did not vote on Thursday. The options are: Yes, No and Abstain.
Please vote by 14:00 UTC on Thursday 27 November. (Note that there is no meeting on that day; the next one is 4 December.)

In summary
- This is not a consensus call on the options.
- This is to decide whether the initial report should have one set of recommendations or two sets of recommendations.
- If a majority believes it should be only one set, the WG, at a later stage (probably during our next meeting, on 4 December) will decide which set it will be.
- Please bear in mind that this is the initial report and following public comments on it we will be able to modify/amend/change/reverse our draft recommendations.

Incidentally, I shall email soon asking for your comments on version 5 of the report and including the rest of mine.

Regards,

Chris.
