<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=blue face=Arial><span style='font-size:
11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue'>If I understand Anne’s line of
thinking, the concern is about how to deal specifically with Board requested
PDPs that are suspended. However, option 3 sounds like we are
recommending that the Board receive an interim report whether they have
initiated the PDP or not. This is a significant change and would only add
more to the Board’s already full plate, in my view.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=blue face=Arial><span style='font-size:
11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue'>That said, in circumstance where a
suspension has been called for, I do see the merit of requesting that Council
generate an interim report and post it to inform the <u>entire</u> <u>community</u>
of the suspension and reason(s) for which it was suspended. That would be
quite logical in the larger scheme of things.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

consideration is that if we add that language it is a substantive change from
the original footnote text. The previous suggestion — adding the
word "stated" and deleting "until further notice" --- was
deemed by the SCI to be a minor clarification and thus didn't require us to
open a Public Comment Forum on new language. As discussed during last
Thursday's meeting, any substantive change to the text that was presented in
the public comment period that just ended on 03 December would require that the
revised text go out for public comment again at a minimum of 21 days.
