<div>Hi,</div>

<div>Thanks to those who have worked on this comment. The
revisions have addressed my principle concerns and if folks
want to go forward with this I'm happy to endorse.</div>

<div>That said, I do believe the Board should have waited until
all of the new accountability mechanisms were operational
before proposing any changes to how they processed them.</div>

That's an interesting point. I wonder if there is a tally anywhere
of all the new accountability mechanisms. <br>

<div> A look at the number of reconsideration requests filed
yields the following data:</div>

<div>2013 -23 requests</div>
<div>2014- 46 requests</div>
<div>2015- 15 requests</div>

<div>Although I'm not sure the change is needed, and personally
believe that the way the accountability mechanisms are
designed reconsideration will be a sadly underutilized

Like to understand that more - maybe in Joburg? <br>

<div>I do think the community should give the Board great leeway
in designing its operations. If the Board wants to do things
this way, I see no major negative impact to the community
going forward so we should allow it to proceed. Indeed, given
the poor success rate for complainants under the current
rules, changing committee composition and structure can only
help.</div>

Agree.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
