10 COMMENTS RECEIVED BY THE COMMITTEE CONCERNING THE DRAFT VERSION OF THIS REPORT 10.1 Introduction A draft version of this report dated 16 th April 2018 was initially sent to a number of individuals whose comments we felt would be helpful at an early stage. We received eleven sets of comments in reply, all of which were broadly supportive. The draft report was then discussed by the IPA Board at its June 2018 meeting in London, where it was well-received. The Board approved its immediate distribution for comment, to Presidents of component Societies and via the July Newsletter to all IPA members and candidates, with a request for comments to be submitted by 28 th September. By the end of September it was apparent that for various reasons, including the timing of annual vacations, not everyone who might potentially be interested in submitting comments had yet seen the draft report. Nevertheless, by 3 rd October the Committee had received a total of 31 sets of comments, from colleagues in 13 component societies. Because we did not ask for permission to include names in this report, we give here only the IPA institutional affiliations of the respondents: • American Psychoanalytical Association (APsaA)
• Australian Psychoanalytical Society • Belgian Psychoanalytical Society • British Psychoanalytical Society • Buenos Aires Psychoanalytic Association
• Canadian Psychoanalytic Society • Finnish Psychoanalytical Society
• French Psychoanalytical Association (APF) • German Psychoanalytical Association (DPV) • İstanbul Psychoanalytic Association (PSIKE)
• Paris Psychoanalytical Society (SPP) • Swedish Psychoanalytical Association • Uruguayan Psychoanalytical Association We also received comments from the International Working Group on Teleanalysis 29 and from a staff researcher at the Citizen Lab, University of Toronto 30 . Summarised below are some of the main themes and issues raised by the comments we have received to date. We have not attempted to give a full or complete account of all the 29 The International Working Group on Teleanalysis has both IPA and non-IPA members. Although not formally part of the IPA, it has run pre-congress workshops at a number of IPA congresses. 30 Citizen Lab is an interdisciplinary laboratory based at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, University of Toronto, focusing on research, development, and high-level strategic policy and legal engagement at the intersection of information and communication technologies, human rights, and global security.
