Having a non moderated discourse was one of my greatest fears as discussions from diverse backgrounds tend to degenerate very fast especially on this platform. Bringing back all the past expertise is an evidence of pressing the panic button. how will they all reach consensus and I believe parties will still not be satisfied by their outcome.It's now a typical case of who will bell the cat. For me discussions on this platform should even be put on a halt due to the fact there are no chairs to moderate discussions pending a comprehensive decision on the way forward whether be it guided by the CPM or boards prerogatives. <br><br>On Tuesday, February 9, 2021, Fernando Frediani <<a href="mailto:fhfrediani@gmail.com">fhfrediani@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p>You don't have to agree. It is just the way it is either you
agree or not.</p>
<p>There is a proper process in the CPM which all that participates
here accept. The Recall Committee cannot do things at will when
they like. There is a formal process to be followed, requisites to
be fulfilled, the Board must sit, discuss and approve and create a
Recall Committee and then the Recall Committee do a thorough job
(which they did) and determine de outcome. You may not accept but
it is like that and currently we don't have more Co-Chairs.</p>
<p>Just wait for the Board to lead the next election process via the
staff as done before.</p>

<p>Please, the committee's outcome remains that the Co-Chairs
should be recalled. There must be a pronouncement from the board
that constituted the Recall committee. This is not a market

<p class="MsoNormal">Here we are indeed in a strange

we all had it <br>

<br>
I am baffled that Jordi is already making a suggestion
on how to proceed <br>
to get new Co-Chairs. When the recommendations of the
Recall Committee <br>
has not being assented to. Though, I don't know who is
to approve the <br>
recommendations of the committee.<br>
<br>
Hence, the response of Jordi is not tenable here, since
I have not seen <br>
any declaration that, we don't have co-chairs. I am
aware that the Alan <br>
Barret led committee made recommendations, which
requires acceptance, <br>
approval and implementation.<br>
<br>
I am rather seeing a strange situation in the haste that
is being <br>
suggested on how to deal with the 'situation of no
Co-chairs'.<br>
<br>
I am currently studying the documents provided by the
Recall Committee, <br>
to enable one make an appropriate comment. But, at this
early stages the <br>
outcome of the committees report remains just
recommendations.<br>
