                          <div class="MsoNormal"><span>FWIW, I have been
                              reflecting on the “with explanation”
                              requirement in the second of these items
                              below and I think I am increasingly
                              somewhat sympathetic to those who oppose
                              this requirement – especially in the GAC
                              (for whom I generally have no great
                              sympathy </span><span>J</span><span>). 
                              Reflecting on public policy requirements I
                              can at least imagine some plausible
                              scenarios where a government (or many
                              governments) might wish to avoid having to
                              say publicly what they know to be true
                              privately.  These can range from
                              diplomatic reasons of creative ambiguity
                              to perhaps even the possession of
                              confidential information about an issue
                              that is sufficient to raise concern, but
                              not disclosable.   At least in situations
                              where the recommendation is by a large
                              consensus, we might be comfortable with
                              the idea that the internal discipline of
                              the advisory committee is sufficient.</span></div>

                          <div class="MsoNormal"><span>As I said, I am

                              my general skepticism of unexplained
                              decisionmaking, but even some colleagues
                              in whom I repose some trust have suggested
                              that explaining everything may be a bit of

                            I want to thank all of you for trying very
                            hard to find agreement on all these topics.
                            I appreciate how everyone is keeping an open

                            words "within their respective
                            jurisdictions" in Core Value 7 (ex-11). I
                            remember we had some pushback on this in
                            Paris. <br>

                                academia, recognizing that governments

                            same level as "not exceeding the Mission". <br>
                            <br>
                            I also wonder whether we could find ATRT
                            agreed language on the provision of
                            rationales in support of advice. It seemed
                            to me that these reviews had contributed to
                            significant improvements in that regard and
                            the use of "agreed language" often helps
                            when time is short. <br>
