The open REFEDS Consultations were discussed. The SFA and Assurance consultations are well in hand and will be circulated for approval by email when finalised. Nicole outlined the issues with the Academic Institution Entity Category. Members of the SC were unanimous that given the outstanding issues with the EC, the lack of evidence for support and use cases for the EC and the envisaged cost to support this EC by Federation Operators compared to know use cases, the EC should be parked at this stage and not rolled out for implementation. Work will be frozen and can be revisited if support can be proven.
- Nicole Harris to inform the REFEDS list of the outcome of the SC decision on the EC.
