The CPM allows us to vary the process in the best interest of the community hence we shall work with the authors of this proposal in the coming months to see if there can be a way forward on this proposal. A decision shall be made based on this before the next policy meeting to avoid wasting the limited and precious time during the policy meeting. A proposal cannot continue to have an infinite loop hence the need to vary the process. </span></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;"><span class="" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; color: rgb(29, 34, 40);"> </span></p><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt 36pt; line-height: normal; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><b class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; color: rgb(29, 34, 40);">11.<span class="" style="font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-family: "Times New Roman";"> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></span></b><b class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; color: rgb(29, 34, 40);">Proposal: AFRINIC Number Resources Transfer Policy (Co-Chairs Decision: No Consensus)</span></b></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><a href="https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2019-gen-002-d2#proposal" rel="noreferrer noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank" class="" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193);"><span class="" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">https://afrinic.net/policy/proposals/2019-gen-002-d2#proposal</span></a><b class=""><span class="" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; color: rgb(29, 34, 40);"></span></b></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><b class=""><span class="" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; color: red;">Back to list for further discussion and refinement</span></b><span class="" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; color: rgb(29, 34, 40);"></span></div><div class="" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span class="" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; color: rgb(29, 34, 40);">This proposal has not reached consensus.
