[AFRI-Discuss] MOTION FOR AMENDMENTS TO RULES OF PROCEDURE IN AFRALO

Tue Jul 4 16:07:02 UTC 2017

Distinugished colleagues,

I would like to echo Fatimata and Seun's comments. Let us refer the
issue back to the ROP working group. I would also like to propose that
we adopt a win win approach for all where the majority has the way and
the minority has their say as we have demonstrated in our debates.
Most of our activities are voluntary and require a lot of investment
in time and resources, i would suggest that we pay attention to such
factors as well.

Best Regards
