Mathew - what type of questions are you thinking about. Response questions drafted should address what they think and what is in the bylaws<br>
Steve example per our charter in the bylaws, we ask each SOAC about documents/procedures showing how they assure accountability, transparency, participation, and prevent capture.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#333333">Discussion on the timing of developing the questions may depend on staff paper release and then the timing of responses from SO/ACs<br>
Suggestion to add additional point to ask them if there is any departure of the day-to-day processes<br>
CW three points: wants to hear more from participants, regarding the questions in particular if they are accountable to their members, the critical issue is how do they decide and what positions to take acting in a accountable and transparent issue, this is
how to prevent capture otherwise you will not succeed in having SO/ACs provide accountability procedures.<br>
Possible question - What existing formal accountability measures does your organizations have in place. Importance of focusing on crafting the questions so they address what the group want to capture for its work.<br>
Points raised regarding self-appraisal, note what Avri has placed in the chat<br>
Avri Doria: I look forward to seeing the self-appraisals. not only the content included, but the content excluded says a lot in such a self-appraisal. wonder how many of the SOAC will pass a giggle test .<br>
Avri Doria: i am almost included to argue against Kavouss' view of the GNSO, but am sure now is not the time to have such discussions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
