CGOV.7:11 - SoTA-Echoing

The G20/OECD Principles, II.F describes varied related-party approval arrangements, including independent review and restrictions on interested participation. Section V.E connects independent judgement to relationships and corporate responsibilities. These are comparative principles, not one rule applicable to every corporation.

This method combines those distinctions with bounded inquiry and explicit transfer of specialist findings. Direct deliberation under an adequate existing arrangement remains an alternative when permitted; a new committee or opinion is not intrinsically superior. The legal basis, actual independence and technical warrant of each opinion need their own support. A change to any condition material to the receiving decision reopens the affected contribution.
