RE: [nc-transfer] preparing a status report to the NC


Marilyn
The ISPCP will certainly discuss the status of the transfer issue during our
meeting tomorrow. Its already quite evident that this requires more debate
in order to move things forward and that a focused approach is required to
achieve this in a timely manner. 

Your proposal to provide an update to the NC in the manner you suggest
offers a pragmatic approach and I would support the continuation of the TF.
At this stage its too early to draw conclusions that would enable any final
recommendations to be put forward. Agreeing a final cut off date for this
work is a must, we can't allow this situation to drag on. It has to be
resolved.

As for participation, I'm opposed to any attempt to press gang individuals
by asking Philip to appoint someone from Constituencies if they haven't
nominated by the 15th. That just won't work. This is too important to have
people on the TF who either have no interest, or are so busy on other fronts
that they don't have the bandwidth to participate. Any later claims that
those Constituencies took part, and therefore supported the outcome would be
disingenuous. Far better that Philip reminds those who haven't nominated,
they have a very limited chance of influencing the outcome and will not be
looked upon kindly if they decide to take major issue with the output of the
TF after completion of its work. 

Whilst in Marina del Rey the ISPCP will certainly welcome any further
opportunities for discussion.
