[CCWG-ACCT] Legal Committee and WS2 budget - new proposal

[Mathieu Weill]

Dear Colleagues, 

 

Based on the feedback received during last week's call, as well as on the
robust discussion on the list, we are suggesting a revised approach for
the Legal Committee : 

-          Composition based on previous Legal executive team

-          Co-chairs remain budget owners, working with support from the
PCST

-          Legal committee may direct requests to external firms, on a
case by case assessment taking into account costs, skills as well as
potential requirement for "independent" advice. 

 

We believe this strikes a good balance between the need to manage costs
efficiently and responsibly, and the ability for our group to request
independent advice when needed. 

 

Depending on the feedbacks, we will report on our progress to the Board
Finance Committee and SO/AC leaders during a call that has been arranged
at the BFC's request on Monday 25 July. 

 

Best regards,

Mathieu Weill

Co-chair
