Other tasks that - need to be delay after receiving the external review report
Can be handle in //
Sebastien Bachollet: Dependencies with other sub-groups. Diversity is discussing the need for an office on Diversity and could this be handled by the Ombuds Office. Should we write to them suggesting the Ombuds Office could handle this.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr: We should write to the Diversity sub-group with this offer given they have quite a bit on their plate.
Asha Hemrajani: Agree.
Sebastien Bachollet: (review of Transparency dependencies from the original transparency report) All comments on possible sub-group dependencies via the list would be appreciated.
Asha Hemrajani: Re Transparency - Using Ombudsman to determine if a request is abusive or vexatious – how does the Ombudsman view this?
Herb Waye: These Transparency suggestions are problematic at several levels. As such uncertain how to answer the question.
Sebastien Bachollet: Will suggest we discuss this at the upcoming plenary.
Asha Hemrajani: Questions regarding the Ombuds office reporting on DIDP requests and promoting awareness. Would appreciate the Ombudsman input on these proposals. We need to crystalize our thoughts on these points before inviting MK.
Sebastien Bachollet: Will send a email to the list asking what other topics we can be working on in parallel.
Adebunni Adeola Akinbo: can you recirculate information please (SB ok).
