| 27 | The proposed re-organisation of the roles of the Working Group Leaders and the split of the NDC into a Scientific Advisory Committee and an internal NDC was supported. The NEMO Steering Committee will be asked to approve it. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | The frequency of the SAC meetings was discussed; once every 2-3 years is probably appropriate. A “light” meeting once a year is a possible alternative. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | === 2. Overview of the time-line for actions expected by the end of the year === |

| 35 | Following the [https://forge.ipsl.jussieu.fr/nemo/wiki/2019WP 2019 workplan], some major development work will be completed by end 2019 including new features, |
| 36 | efficiency, reliability, visibility and preparing future. However Claire flagged that the number of actions completed is small compared with those listed in the initial workplan. |
| 37 | By end 2019, there will remain: |
| 38 | * a number of “ongoing” actions, because some actions should have been more clearly labelled as what is expected during the year, some actions have been missing work time, and some have faced unexpected difficulties. In a realistic workplan, only the later should be “ongoing” |
| 39 | * a number of “not started actions” due to lack of time |
| 40 | |
| 41 | The 2019 workplan was still not realistic whereas it was expected to be. |
| 42 | This may be related to the ambitions of IMMERSE: the 2019 workplan includes also IMMERSE 2020 actions, that can partly explain the “not-started actions”. |
