Council Colleagues –

Attached, please find a draft letter developed by a subteam of Councilors in response to the Board’s letter on IGO Acronyms, and the accompanying “small group” proposal.  I recognize that many of you are already en route to Hyderabad, but hopefully you’ll have a chance to review prior to our meeting on 7 NOV.

Here are a few highlights:


·         The Council believes that elements of the “small group” proposal relating to IGO Acronyms were previously and effectively considered in the PDP that was adopted in 2013.

·         The Council has no current plans to reconsider its standing recommendations to the Board.

·         While the Council does have a procedure for amending policy recommendations in extraordinary circumstances, this process could have significant implications for future PDPs.

o    Additionally, any review of previous recommendations is complicated by the nearly 3 year delay since this PDP was adopted.

·         Those elements that are within scope for the current Curative Rights PDP Working Group have been referred to that WG, which reviewed them during its call on 13 OCT.


Finally, we have included a staff-prepared comparison table, highlighting the differences between the PDP, the proposal, and GAC advice, including references to relevant areas of the original PDP Final Report.

I hope that these materials will help inform our discussion on 7 NOV, and our response to the Board on this topic.

Safe travels, and see you in Hyderabad!


Thank you--
J.

James Bladel
