[council] [EXTERNAL] Re: Should the SCBO prepare a comment on the proposed Reserve Fund replenishment strategy?

[Ayden Férdeline]

Thank you for these comments, Donna. If there are no objections raised on this list, I will notify the SCBO in 48 hours time that we should begin formulating a comment on the proposed Reserve Fund replenishment strategy, mindful of the SCBO/Council's mandate, and we will then report back to Council in due course on our progress.

Best wishes,

Ayden Férdeline
