<div>While I am sure there are other qualified candidates on council, I think Anne would be an excellent choice: in her expertise on the subject matter, in understanding the role of a liaison (rather than an advocate), being an unbiased & meticulous
reporter back to the Council, and in accurately carrying back any thoughts of the Council members to the IRT. </div>

<div dir="ltr">Sebastien,
<div>Please consider this email to be my formal expression of interest to serve as GNSO Council Liaison to the Sub Pro IRT. I previously submitted my interest informally when joining the Council. My term on Council currently runs through the 2024
fall meeting. I heard you say the Liaison must be assured of being on Council for a long time. My intent would be to accomplish as much as possible in my remaining term. I would also apply to Nom Com again to continue on Council for another two year term. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As you know, I was active in the Sub Pro Working Group and have been active in the Council Small Team dealing with the Board's 38 pending issues. I have now retired from the practice of law and do not represent any clients. Accordingly, I have
the time as well as the ability to avoid bias in the fulfillment of the role. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As Jeff pointed out, we may need more than one Council Liaison.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you,</div>
