Tijani Ben Jemaa, At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) Member and AFRALO Representative on the Executive Committee, originally composed this statement.
A wiki workspace on the Statement of the ALAC on the Proposed Framework for the FY12 Operating Plan and Budget was posted on 2 April. On that same day, a call for comments was sent to the ALAC Budget and Finance Sub-Committee and At-Large Improvements Work Team C mailing lists. On 4 April, an additional call for comments was sent to the ALAC-Announce mailing list.
After incorporating comments received, a second version (the present document) was created on 4 April 2011.
On 31 March 2011, Olivier Crépin-Leblond, Chairman of the ALAC, requested the At-Large Staff to begin a five day ALAC vote on this statement starting 4 April 2011.
On 4 April 2011, the enclosed statement was submitted to the public comment for this issue in care of the relevant staff person with a note saying that the document was currently undergoing ALAC ratification.
On 9 April 2011, At-Large Staff confirmed that the online vote resulted in the ALAC endorsing the Statement with 14 votes in favor, 0 votes against, and 0 abstentions. You may review the result independently under: https://www.bigpulse.com/pollresults?code=2406BgPXb6LGwuafijWKjun2
