I assume that you are referring to the following text in the draft:

   "Fees are be paid that are at a level to attract and retain board members
    of suitable caliber. There is a need to ensure that the governance of .mu
    is in the hands of people who have the standards of ability and character
    to carry out the functions and will spend the time required to fully
    consider the issues."

Will it be possible to attract members of suitable caliber in
Mauritius if the persons are not given any compensation?

I assume that you agree with the rest of the draft.
