The IASB greatly appreciates the wide interest in the project, as shown by the large number of applications to join the consultative group.  The IASB was constrained in the selection of group members by the need to keep the group small enough to work effectively.  However, it encourages other interested parties to register as observers at consultative group meetings, which will be open to the public, and to share their thoughts and concerns throughout the consultative stages of the project.
