Councillors,

Just as an FYI, here is an extract from the transcript of today's Board meeting:

>>PETER DENGATE THRUSH: WE BEGIN WITH A CONSENT AGENDA, AND FOR THOSE WHO ARE NEW TO THIS PROCESS THIS IS A THING BY WHICH A NUMBER OF REPORTS AND THINGS HAVE BEEN WORKED UP THROUGH THE VARIOUS PROCESSES AND COME TO THE BOARD FOR APPROVAL. 
THE BOARD HAS DISCUSSED EACH OF THESE ITEMS PRIOR TO THE MEETING. UNDERSTANDS THE CONTENTS AND HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO REMOVE ANY ITEM FROM THE CONSENT AGENDA FOR PLACEMENT ON THE FULL JEANTD IF IT'S THOUGHT APPROPRIATE THAT ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION IS REQUIRED ON THESE ITEMS. 
JUST BY WAY OF EXPLANATION THEY INCLUDE APPROVAL OF MINUTES, ADOPTING CHARTERS FOR THE GNSO, A PROPOSAL FOR A NEW CHARTER IN THE GNSO, APPROVAL OF A CONSTITUENCY RECOGNITION PROCESS, CHANGES TO ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIPS, CHANGING THE FORMULATION OF THE NOMINATING SLIDE IN REGARD TO THE KEAK SLOT, MEETINGS NEXT YEAR IN LATIN AMERICA AND EUROPE. AND THEN THANKING DEPARTING. AND THANKING OUR HOSTS, AND THANKING YOU OUR MEETING PRAVERNTS PARTICIPANTS. 
SO WITH THAT, I AM GOING TO MOVE FROM THE CHAIR THE ADOPTION OF THE CONSENT AGENDA. IS THERE A SECONDER FOR THAT? 
THANK YOU, GEORGE. 
SO THE MOTION THAT WE ADOPT THE CONSENT AGENDA IS NOW PUT. 
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HANDS.
