I thought that Stephane's request raised an interesting procedural
question/quandary, and I was a little surprised to see it granted without
discussion.
The PDP Manual is rather sparse, stating only that the first step in the
amendment/modification process is that: "The PDP Team is reconvened or, if
disbanded, reformed, and should be consulted with regards to the proposed
amendments or modifications;"
I had thought of this as "getting the band back together again," i.e.,
bringing together the team that had participated in the original PDP
process so they could be consulted based on their experience and expertise
gained through the deliberations of the Working Group. As such I had the
idea that the reconvened WG was limited to the pre-existing members of the
WG.
Of course, Working Groups are generally open to new participants at any
time, unless stated otherwise, and subject to certain limitations (i.e.,
later joiners must read the existing documents, etc. of the group and may
not re-open decided points absent compelling new evidence). It was just
not clear to me that this general rule applied to a reconvened working
group, given my understanding of why the "old" group is reconstituted
rather than just forming a new group.
If the general rule applies, and the group is open to new members, doesn't
it then make sense to put out a general call for new members? We should
allow all stakeholders the same opportunity, rather than having new
membership be "by invitation only."
To me, the current situation is a somewhat uncomfortable midway point
between bringing the old gang together and essentially convening a new
group under the name of the old one.
It would be unfortunate to start our work with a procedural irregularity,
particularly where the invitation for selected new members to participate
has come from the party that is inarguably most interested in the outcome
of this process. This could set an unfortunate precedent for future work
under Section 16.
I look forward to the thoughts of others. Apologies that I cannot be on
Wednesday's call to raise the issue.
Best regards,
Greg
