<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#365f91">As promised during the last call, here is my take regarding the
community power about the budget:<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#365f91"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#365f91">I notice that we are much more focusing on the Budget veto after
its adoption by the board than on the involvement of the community in the
budget development.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#365f91"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#365f91">Since few years , Xavier formed a community ad hoc group to
discuss the budget preparation from the planning till the last public comment
period before transmitting the budget to the board for adoption. This experience
has been improved over the years and now, we have a very good consultation
process that makes the budget almost agreed on by the community. By the way, the
ad hoc group will have a workshop of several hours in Dublin.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#365f91"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#365f91">I think that all of us wish that we will never meet the
situation where an adopted budget is rejected by the community; at least I do. And
to avoid such a situation, I proposed that we formalize the current consultation,
and make it part of the official budget development process. I find it more
important and more constructive to strengthen this a priori involvement of the
community in the budget development. I know that it was mentioned in our second
report, but wasn’t given the appropriate importance and wasn’t
elaborated with sufficient details.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#365f91">I propose that our final report makes this a priori involvement of
the community the main path and the veto, that I hope we will get rid of, the
exceptional and ultimate  way.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
