***Proposed process is to have the TSC approve its inclusion in the NIB pool/ballot cycle if it's more than 7 days late.

***On Sept13 cycle it's not noted if the late submission created an out of cycle ballot and Dave may want to track this.
 +
***Several items in 2013May cycle all came from SD and may have been reported directly to them and not to PMO; Austin asks if the PSS template clearly states that it should be submitted to the PMO or other mailbox.

***Melva suggested that the PSSes should be submitted to the SD at the WGM. This was something that was suggested for the calendar that Rick was working on. Dave notes that it moves the PSS deadline up almost 2 weeks. Many WGs review and approve PSSes at the WGM so that would be difficult.

***One question posed was whether the projects were regulatory. May2014 Attachments, 2014Jan Value Sets, CCDA Attachments, others marked in spreadsheet.

***Conclusion: all ballot type (comment, informative, reaffirmation, normative, DSTU) all must obtain TSC approval for inclusion in ballot cycle after 7+ days. Up to 6 days after the deadline the PMO can approve for inclusion.

***Austin suggests the TSC start tracking how many exceptions are being granted in each cycle. It's not to be added to WGH or PBS Metrics at this time. It's unclear which Strategic Initiative it would support.
