>> Staff confirms that a written response was sent to George before this deadline. A copy of that response is attached for your reference. A further call has been scheduled for this Thursday between the parties concerned. As was done with the call last week, this call will also be recorded and the recording and transcript posted to the Working Group wiki space.
