Resolution Text:

Whereas, on 12 March 2010, the Board authorized the review of the Technical Liaison Group (TLG) to be conducted by a TLG review Working Group (Resolution 2010.03.12.07) and authorized the Structural Improvements Committee (SIC) to establish a TLG review Working Group and adopt all necessary measures to perform the review (Resolution 2010.03.12.08).

Whereas, at its 20 May 2010 meeting, the SIC unanimously agreed that it would be preferable that a working group not be formed, and that an outside consultant would perform the review. The SIC members approved that the staff, reporting to SIC, would provide oversight to the outside consultants.

Whereas, Resolutions 2010.03.12.07 and 2010.03.12.08 require modification to reflect that no working group will be formed for the review of the TLG.

Resolved (2010.06.25.06), that the review of the TLG authorized on 12 March 2010 remains authorized by the Board and the Board reaffirms the aims of the review of the TLG as set forth in Resolution 2010.03.12.06.

Resolved (2010.06.25.07), the review of the TLG is not required to be conducted through the formation of a TLG review Working Group and the Structural Improvements Committee (SIC) is authorized to adopt all necessary measures to perform the review, in consultation with the community, and to report to the Board through the SIC on the final findings and recommendations.
