Thank for the dialogue on our statement.
I tend to agree with Chuck in that WGs are such a key part of the BGC
proposals that it will look very odd (and unhelpful for the Board) if we
say nothing.

I believe the problem may be that I constructed our reply to be REACTIVE
to the BGC wording.
What I think we have all been saying is more refined than the BGC text.
So I suggest a simple PROACTIVE statement of what we want (and a removal
of the relevant part of the table under item 3 on working groups).
See attached.

I have also changed to "comment" the title that was previously "partial
support" above the comments we made.

I hope we can all agee to this latest version. I have done my very best
to use the most neutral language and capture the minimal level of
unanimity we have on Council.
If there is support, Glen please submit. I will be out of the office for
the rest of the day / week.

Philip
