<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Hi Chuck.&nbsp; Thank you for your very detailed response to the recommendations.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">To answer your question regarding the percentages, the Excel document indicates the answers with the highest response by working party members.&nbsp; So, for example, Recommendation 3 indicates that 50% of respondents
 thought that &#8220;ease of implementation&#8221; would be hard; 8.3% thought that it would be easy, 33.3% responded with medium and 8.3% responded with no opinion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Continuing with Recommendation 3, 66.7% thought that the &#8220;cost of implementation&#8221; would be high, while 16.7% thought it would be medium, 8.3% thought it would be low and 8.3% responded with no opinion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Therefore, the chart reflects the highest response rate to a particular question.&nbsp; While not scientific, it helped me &#8220;rank&#8221; the recommendations in order of agreement by the Working Party which allowed us to
 review the recommendations quickly during our working session in Dublin.&nbsp; The backup data for each recommendation is listed under separate worksheets in the Excel document which may help further explain my note above.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I hope that this clarifies the percentages for you.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
