[Ws2-jurisdiction] CONSENSUS CALL ON NOTE 4.1 TEXTS: Almost Final Draft Report for Review before Submission to Plenary on 2 March

Dear all,

I strongly support option 4 - no change.

In the worst case I could possibly live with the option 1, but only if
there is a tie. Please don't count this note as my vote for the option 1
in any other case.

Cheers,

Tanya
