<p>Alan,</p>
<p>When Glenn started this thread I made comments thinking they may
have some impact. But as I look again as Glenn's post, it seems
that the job post was public and sought applicants. But then you
said " Although we have asked before, this is the first
time we have had an opportunity to comment on the actual
description" I became a bit more unsure of the post's status. Was
this a post seeking applicants, or do we have a chance to shape
the job description?<br>
</p>
<p>My use of ALS was under the assumption that bottom-up advice was
being sought. And it probably should have been ALSes.<br>
</p>
<p>Best,</p>
<p>Tom<br>

The position was created at the same time as Allen Grogan was
appointed
to the role of Chief Contract Compliance Officer in October 2014
(a
position he has just announced he will be leaving). For whatever
reasons,
it was never filled. Although we have asked before, this is the
first
time we have had an opportunity to comment on the actual
description. We
had been asked to suggest aspects that should be included in it
earlier,
but I don't believe that anyone took them up on that.<br>
<br>
I am confused by your reference to "the ALS". Do you mean the
ALAC?<br>

I like a consumer trust position. But this doesn't say anything
about who the person reports to, and the openness of the
positions
activities. E.G., I'd hope we would be able to see if this is
focused on
assuaging the concerns of the pharmaceutical or film industries
and not
name sale abuses by registries or registrars.<br>
<br>
But I have a question about the origin of this position. Is this
something ALS requested? Did this arise from a staff initiative
that is
thought to respond to needs expressed by the ALS? Or otherwise?
Did the
ALS have an opportunity to set the scope of this position?<br>
