The draft is acceptable as is - thanks for your work on editing...&nbsp; I have
proposed a few non-substantive edits to improve understanding - for example use

replacing forum with consultation, etc.<br>
<br>
One possible addition might be a reaffirmation of our commitment to
consultation which should be differentiated from our 7 day period for
decisions...&nbsp; Possible language which could be added to making decisions
could be:<br>
