<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I recall the proposal of Viviane Reding
in 2009, when she was commissioner for Information Society and
Media at the European Commission:<br>

Now she is

<span class="st">vice-president and commissioner responsible for
Justice, Fundamental rights and Citizenship.<br>
<br>
</span>Parminder, please, do you envision things in a similar way?<br>
John, please, what do you think about Mrs Reding's proposal?<br>
<br>
Psss! A new thread? I leave you take the initiative as you put the

I have made the proposal several times on this list for a multi
country oversight board, that takes up the role of oversight
exercised by the US at present..... India's CIRP proposal present

Still TBD (to be determined...) - the assertion relies on

What kind of 'evidence' a proposal for a new/ improved political
