[inaudible] viewed as a good decision to generate return that has been in there and should do that would be conveyed. the next point we add in the and whereof to staff. connection with qualifying how we design risk and consider guard rails. i think it is an excellent point and go hundred in hand with the discussions we will have the az set liability study and the importance of the topic [inaudible] we recommend that be addressed through the future

investment committee and board [inaudible] have guard rails in we can enhance those as needed based on the outcome of liability in the study. >> those are the key points. i [inaudible] an opportunity for to ask questions [inaudible] address your questions you may have. >> any questions issue commissioners? commissioner driscoll. >> i look forward to voting for the draft proposed. i want to make 2 major points and the motion is made i will ask for a small amendment. sending us again. the way it was broken up and those changes that are eliminated in the direction. 1, 2 and 3 on the memo the

the packet. but the amendment then i will explain it. under investment goals we will see item 3 be to change the legislate to add and there by add value as the total fund level. the way the clause would read now reads exceeds the bench mark based on allocation policy and asset class component upon bench mark overruling 5 year period. that's the way it it is now. i'm recommending adding. and there by add value at the total fund level. the first amendment. the second one, this is the capture [inaudible] under duties

of the investment staff, one duty is carrying out rebeens activity. i wish to add the clause within and across clatsdzs including leverage to reduce risk return add value and maintain allocations within guard rails. all in accordance to the policies in this document those other 2. and i will explain the second. yes. do you have a response to that? >> the language that they suggested is consistent with sxroesz what we do is adding language to clarify that. so certainly in our effort to exceed the policy bench mark adding excess percentage return. if we do that, we will be adding

value of the total fund level. why you are okay. >> that change and likewise with the other change it is how we rebalance the [inaudible]. >> okay. >> did you have anything else? >> she is in agreement with that. everyone is fine du want to add. gi would, to show more things. i did ask romachineo to help with wording one it did not conflict with what has been done and also understood. she mentioned clarity. if you have clarity in the decision make process it has to start with clarity in the rowel s and rolls royce. the issue addings value i asked to be added is not just about hitting the bench mark and meeting returns butt concept. other on the value we don't control. i want to make it understood

that there is a reason why we are investing and taking on risks. adding value. that is a decision policy. you will hear decision quality not today it is different that adds to governors when they talk about that. that is why i'm proposing the 2 amendments yoochlt good to know you did if in partnership. helpful [inaudible]. motion. gi think, yes , i think what you say is you want to put forward approve the management monitor policy inform as amended. >> yes. made by commissioner bridges and seconded while commissioner. >> second. >> thomas. >> before we do roll call will we will go to public comment. seeing no in person public
