<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Dear all,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Thank you all for your very timely and thoughtful comments, in some cases (like Justine) in very thorough and helpful detail. Please find attached, for what staff hopes is a final review by this Sub Team,
an updated List of Consolidated URS Provider Questions. This version reflects what we believe are the most recent agreements within the Sub Team, incorporates new suggested changes from the last version circulated, and for ease of review discards most of the
previous redlined text that were either merely typos/formatting, or that reflected “old” comments that have since been resolved or superseded.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">As you review this version, please note the following:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We have highlighted in yellow those questions in the main text where we believe a Sub Team decision still needs to be made, or that otherwise requires
additional clarification;<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We have highlighted text in some comment boxes in yellow as well – these generally indicate follow up information which in staff’s belief answers some
questions or provides additional context;<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">In cases where additional staff review – either of the data we compiled for the URS Documents Sub Team or via an initial review of Professor Rebecca
Tushnet’s data results – seemed to us to have provided the full answer to a question, we have also highlighted the question in grey as being suggested for DELETION and crossed it out in the main text. Please note that this means, in a few cases, we have
<u>not</u> incorporated a Sub Team suggestion to retain a question. We have, however, retracted our previous suggestions for some other deletions where our follow up review of the data seemed to show at best a partial answer to a question. We welcome the Sub
Team’s confirmation or correction of these few staff suggestions.<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We hope this is helpful to you as you review the final proposed list of questions. As mentioned previously, our aim is to send the questions out before the end of the week; as such, it will be greatly appreciated
if you can <u>limit any comments to substantive concerns that have not yet been raised previously; or to providing guidance on the remaining questions where the text specifies the need to choose a final formulation; or to correct any errors or omissions on
the staff’s part</u>. Please be so kind as to revert by <b>1200 UTC on Thursday 3 May</b>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
