Establishing timeline commitments for Affcom to respond to requests for approvals or for Affcom to ask new questions about a requested approval. Having approval requests stay open for weeks with no communication from Affcom creates challenges for thematic orgs which are working on our own timelines that may have dependencies on Affcom action. I have experienced this myself and have heard about similar issues happening with other requests. I suggest that Affcom have a commitment that all inquiries will recieve substantive responses within 14 days of the date of the inquiry, or otherwise Legal will take over the handling of the inquiry so that progress of thorgs can continue in a timely manner.
