<div><div>Hi,<br></div><div><br></div><div>Just a quick note, the deadline this week is just for questions and clarifications regarding line items contained within the budget. Comments on the budget itself are due in the last week of April and I believe there is then some leeway for ICANN staff to review our comments and to potentially adjust the budget accordingly. So I am thinking comments re: travel slots should come next month, but now might be a good time to clarify precisely how much $ is going to ALAC versus others...<br></div></div><div><br></div><div class="protonmail_signature_block "><div class="protonmail_signature_block-user "><div>Ayden <br></div></div><div class="protonmail_signature_block-proton protonmail_signature_block-empty"><br></div></div><div><br></div><blockquote type="cite" class="protonmail_quote"><div>-------- Original Message --------<br></div><div>Subject: Re: [NCSG-PC] Fw: RE: [Planning] NCSG Questions re: FY18 Budget<br></div><div>Local Time: 20 March 2017 11:19 PM<br></div><div>UTC Time: 20 March 2017 23:19<br></div><div>From: farzaneh.badii@gmail.com<br></div><div>To: matthew shears <mshears@cdt.org><br></div><div>ncsg-pc@lists.ncsg.is<br></div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">Hi <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">I had plans for NCUC to submit a public comment for having a full time employee to help the constituency travel with facilitating invitation letters and in general help with the loadwork so that visa seekers face less hurdles. I also thought it would be a good idea to ask for more travel slots for the leaders of NCUC since we have trouble getting everyone there and EC works hard.
