<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="">Actually the below link far from addresses the question at hand.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style=""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="">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.</span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style=""> </span></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="">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.</span></p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal">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.
</p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal">From the last date of submission, it means nothing was considered by the authors from input made in Dakar meeting. </p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal">This means the policy remained as is without any input or review for over six months. Making it stale and should have been dicarded.</p>
