Meeting Summary:

IWG-2 Chair Jayne Stancavage introduced the agenda in Document IWG-2/025 (07.03.17). The agenda was approved by unanimous consent.
2. FCC Reps, Opening Remarks and Introductions:
Michael Mullinix, DFO for WAC-19, confirmed his presence on the call.
The Chair requested that members and observers participating in the call send her and Vice-chair Tricia Paoletta an email message indicating their presence on the call.
3. Approval of minutes from previous IWG-2 meeting:
The minutes of the last meeting as contained in Document IWG-2/024r1 (06.02.17) were approved by unanimous consent. The Chair agreed to take the minutes.
4. Discussion of Draft IWG-2 Preliminary Views and Proposals:
In the absence of any documents for consideration, the Chair noted that a table with a status update on the topics under the purview of IWG-2 was provided in the agenda. There was a discussion on the status of some preliminary views in terms of reconciliation with NTIA: it was explained that the expectation is to have them ready for the upcoming CITEL PCC II meeting. NTIA also advised that the RCS has completed a substantial amount of work recently (including a draft proposal on WRC-19 agenda item 9.1/issue 9.1.8. The entire set of preliminary views and proposals should be available to the WAC soon: IWG-2 would have the opportunity to provide edits to any new RCS preliminary views or proposals. There was also a discussion about whether contributions might be expected for any of the agenda items for which IWG-2 has not yet developed a preliminary view: there is not one anticipated for agenda item 1.1 at this time, there will likely be input on agenda item 1.16, an input on agenda item 9.1/issue 9.1.1 is being considered, a draft proposal on agenda item 9.1/issue 9.1.8 is forthcoming from RCS, and it is likely premature to expect anything under agenda item 10.
5. Next meetings:
a. The next IWG-2 meetings will be held as follows:
April 3rd at 11 am-1 pm EDT
April 7th at 10-12 pm EDT
