<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">When John McElwaine originally raised his suggestion in Puerto Rico that the URS be moved into phase 2 of our work, together with the UDRP, there were some concerns expressed about what the working group would
 spend our time doing, if we are not considering the URS, whilst we await the results of the planned data gathering survey on the Sunrise and TM Claims.  I commented during the meeting that I believe there is work that the WG can usefully do, and indeed with
 respect to the data gathering survey I believe there is a potentially significant amount of work that we
<u>must</u> do, irrespective of what happens with the URS, if that survey is to be as effective as possible in eliciting useful data.  This work with respect to the data survey will need to be done over the coming weeks and months, and so, in my view, might
 necessitate pausing deliberations on the URS in any event.  I thought it might be helpful for the purposes of the discussion tomorrow to explain my thoughts on this in a little more detail:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 part of the process.  Past experiences, for example of those who worked on the INTA Impact Study, is that this process involves 3-6 months of survey design and beta testing.  My understanding is that INTA’s design and testing period was compressed in order
 to meet established CCT-RT time lines.  It is possible that this compression contributed to design flaws that deterred participants from completing the survey once they entered the testing environment.  In order for our RPMs data gathering exercise to be effective,
 therefore it is important to take all reasonable measures to ensure that the survey is well designed and tested to ensure maximum results.
