Consider the whole PIC mess is there in response to GAC concerns - but other ACs concerns about implementation can apparently be ignored with impunity of the board are not forced by regulation to care. If the NGPC can just ignore it, ALAC is effectively made totally irrelevant - is that what we want?

I was not aware that the ALAC statement on this topic (submitted in November) was ignored by the board. I was under the impression that it is still under review by the NGPC.

But yes?, I don?t believe the board should be ignoring Advice from ALAC.

Thanks.
