Karen,

Reference: Templates.

Remember that templates work both ways. If a regulating agency creates a template that hits the major points and diminishes a company's "wiggle room" in discussing the actual status, that can be a positive.

While I don't claim knowledge of the pros and cons or NERC's verbage in formulating questions, I can state that with respect to foreign nations discussing their Y2K vulnerabilities that it was crucial to insure that all of the nations were on the same "sheet of music" with respect to information sharing.

This permits each nation to understand better how their neighbors have assessed and analyzed their systems vulnerabilities, while helping to prevent cleverly worded legalese from dominating there statements (which would render them only so much rhetoric).

Do you have a link to the NERC template that was used? I would like to compare it to one that an associate of mine contributed to on the international level.

Regards,

Ron
