<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those not on our last call, and who have not caught up with the recording yet, in the context of our discussion on next steps on Appeals and/or CEP we concluded that it would be helpful for us all to review our SOIs to ensure they are
up to date, and for us to take a moment to inform/remind our colleagues on the group about any current or anticipated interest we may have in an IRP. Would you please take the time to do this, ideally before Tuesday’s call.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With respect to my own SOI (new version attached – Bernard, would you please upload this), I have made the following changes:<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0cm" type="disc">
<li class="m_-9190886076095651238MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm">Removed the reference to my previous post as IPC Secretary since this is no longer current. The SOI already referred to my current role as a GNSO Councilor so although I have made
a consequential change to the text it is not substantive in this regard.<u></u><u></u></li><li class="m_-9190886076095651238MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0cm">Included in Q13 a reference to the IPC’s recent Reconsideration Request and subsequent request for CEP. I have added this in the interests of full transparency, since I am a non-voting
member of the IPC leadership team.<u></u><u></u></li></ul>
