[atrt2] Draft agenda for first ATRT2 face to face meeting

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the question.

I guess it would be any who are still left who had a hand in implementing the changes recommended by ATRT1.  Who fits that description is something I do not know the answer to.

Does the staff have an organized effort for implementation of ATRT recommendations?  Is there a staff person whose job it is to make sure that the ATRT accountability and transparency recommendations are met?   Or does it happen organically, in so far as it may or may not happen?  Is there a committee?  What is the internal process for meeting these obligations? 

I do not know the answers to these questions.  Perhaps it is because I have not read the right document yet, or perhaps it is because that is a degree of transparency that is still missing.  But it is the reason that I would not know who to specifically invite.  

Is there a report that summarize (bullets would be good) all the actions the Staff has taken to date?  I have not read that doc yet.  I know there have been some periodic reports, but something that we are to use as input?  Forgive me if I overlooked it in study preparing for this meeting.  If someone gives me a pointer that that, I will read it immediately - and perhaps get a clue on who should be there.

thanks

avri
