Just as a follow up, ICTA seems to imply that there was stakeholder
engagement in the process of Standards developement. It would be good
if we can be brought up to speed as to the process and outcome of this
stakeholder engagement. It seems ICTA does not engage the public, how
i miss the ICT board under Paul Kukubo, always at hand to clarify
issues however tough the conversation was.
