[rpd] Opposing the last call made on the review policy

[Andrew Alston]

Sami,

Actually the below link far from addresses the question at hand.

How does a policy gain consensus when it failed to gain it once before - without the concerns and substantive issues being addressed.  Either someone would have to withdraw their objections - or the objections which resulted in the failure of consensus would have to be addressed - which would at least in certain cases reflect in a change of the text.

Yes - the policy is still active - but it is active without consensus - since there is no way that consensus can reached without either a change in the policy or an explicit withdrawal of the MULTITUDE of objections that have been raised against this policy, so can the co-chairs please explain how this can happen in their view - because I think myself, and others are VERY confused as to how consensus could have been gained here.

Andrew

Thank you Ernest for your kind response. This clearly showed that the authors of the Review Policy do not care about any input from the community.

>From the last date of submission, it means nothing was considered by the authors from input made in Dakar meeting.

This means the policy remained as is without any input or review for over six months. Making it stale and should have been dicarded.

Can I then conclude that the PDP Co-Chairs erred to have allowed the policy come.up.for discussion in Tunisia.

Is there no case of disregard for rules here?

Cheers
Daniel

No.

Version 6 was received on 10 April 2018, and no newer version thereafter.
