<p class="MsoNormal">Dear all, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My apologies for my absence last night without prior notice.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t have anything much to add to what I hope was a useful discussion on Susan’s straw man. For my part it seems a good suggestion, subject to any points that may have been raised in my absence.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, I would add one word of caution on finer detail for when it comes to implementing this. Susan’s proposal includes the following statement:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“The Emergency Panelist role will be expanded to allow Emergency Panelists to make determinations on procedural matters such as this.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">While I have no objection to the proposal, the Emergency Panelist is intended as an exceptional position, with a narrowly defined role. The three member panel should be the norm.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would not want the elaboration of more responsibilities for the Emergency Panelist such as this to create a sense that the role was defined only by example, rather than exhaustively, and that therefore the Emergency Panelist could acquire
more powers over time not previously contemplated because each addition seemed somewhat similar to those that came before, so as to erode the use of the three member panel.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">During our last call, we spent our time largely focussed on the situation where the Standing Panel might lack “<span style="color:#333333;background:white">the requisite diversity of skill and experience needed for the particular IRP proceeding”,
as envisaged in the Bylaws Section 4.3(k)(ii). Frm that discussion, I think the key points raised were as follows:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#333333;background:white"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">Any rules we set should be light-touch. Need to allow the panel to have some procedural freedom, which has worked will to date;<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">The Standing Panel concept is an important one under the Bylaws, so any exception to this should be narrow and exceptional;<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">There is a need to clarify the mechanism to address the situation where the Standing Panel lacks the diversity of skill and experience. Whilst many felt that this decision needs to
rest with the Standing Panel (or its Chair), there was also support for finding a balance, since the parties may, in practice want to raise this as a concern;<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">Care is needed not to invite actions/decisions from the full Standing Panel which might then have the effect of excluding them all from subsequently acting on the case;<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">The Bylaws also allow for an IRP Panel to seek expert input;<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo3">A determination on whether there is a lack of the requisite diversity of skill and expertise could be made by:<o:p></o:p></li><ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="circle">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo3">Full Standing Panel (risk that all are then conflicted from serving on the IRP Panel for the substantive dispute)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo3">Chair of the Standing Panel (risk that the Chair then is excluded from serving on the IRP Panel in such cases)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo3">Emergency Panelist (likely requires some expansion of this role; currently only seems to cover interim relief)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo3">Allow the Standing Panel to set their own process<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Proposed way forward:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo6">The Standing Panel may, of its own volition and acting through the Chair of the Standing Panel, conclude that it lacks the
<span style="color:#333333;background:white">requisite diversity of skill and experience in the Standing Panel for a particular case. They would need to identify the proposed path forward, for example that both parties select an IRP Panelist from the Standing
Panel and then the third IRP Panelist is selected from outside the Standing Panel, or that all IRP Panelists are selected from Outside the Standing Panel</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo6">A party can raise a concern that there is a lack of the
<span style="color:#333333;background:white">requisite diversity of skill and experience in the Standing Panel for the particular case, which they would do at the time of IRP Panelist selection, i.e. before the 3-person IRP Panel is appointed.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo6">Where raised by a party, an Emergency Panelist will be appointed to from within the Standing Panel to make the determination, unless and until the Standing Panel has set their own
procedure for handling such a situation.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo6">The Emergency Panelist role will be expanded to allow Emergency Panelists to make determinations on procedural matters such as this. The expectation is that Standing Panelists will
take it in turns to serve as n Emergency Panelist, but this will be a matter of Standing Panel procedure for the Standing Panel to decide.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have not amended the draft strawperson to reflect this, but would propose to do so after our call if there is support from the group.<o:p></o:p></p>
