Greetings All from Frankfurt airport. 

My apologies for having to leave early. 

My congratulations to our 3 chairs and all the staff involved for helping us to have a very productive and thought provoking two days. 

I look forward to seeing the outputs and to continuing to work in a spirit of creativity and cooperation towards achieving our goals. 

Cheers,

Chris

An independent review panel may have as one of its powers the ability to recommend or bind the Board to reverse a decision, after it has found that the Board's original decision was not consistent with its bylaws or articles of association.
