RE: [council] Travel support draft text

["Philip Sheppard" <philip.sheppard@xxxxxx>]

It may be useful to have first from staff a comment on the practicality / 
operation of what
we are proposing.

ie 
- will it be a lump sum given 1st Jan to each constituency or a budget against 
which
constituencies draw down?
- how will the fixed sum/budget be determined if there is a variable cost of 
the nom com and
GNSO chair travel (eg variable cost of 3 air tickets and variable days stayed).
- if a new constituency appears in 2009 does the sum/budget to the old 
constituencies go
down?
- is a travel budget an incentive to form a new constituency? (Question for the 
OPS group to
consider ?)
