      It isn’t remotely clear to me.

      UN World Bank IMF interagency task force 20 page report says it's unclear. http://www.un.org/esa/ffd/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Illicit-financial-flows-conceptual-paper_FfDO-working-paper.pdf … I really don't think there's a global/UN consensus on this that can't be unpicked

      I'd very much welcome your making the case at github that the definition is unclear, or other than proposed in the draft.

      I'm not sure how I feel about this. How can I (or anyone) be welcome to make this case if the project's organisers have already declared that there is *no legitimate question* that can be raised on this point?

      The collaborative aspect is focused on, and exciting (to me) for the potential to strengthen the technical evaluation of methodologies and data, so that's where I really hope people will contribute most. But...

      But that said, the introduction is equally open to evidenced suggestions, contributions. I don't expect consensus, and as you say our views are well known, but the process should strengthen the analysis. All welcome!

      There is a difference though between saying that you don't expect consensus in a collaborative process, than saying at the outset that some views are illegitimate

      Please don't misrepresent this. We're inviting comment, critique, contribution on draft chapters. Naturally these express views. (In the past, we have also expressed views.) We are deliberately seeking contributions from many competing views in many areas. These are very welcome.

      I am glad this project is taking place, and clearly part of the point of such discussions is that views can change. In June you (TJN/GATJ) said that there could be no legitimate question over whether the agreed SDG goal on IFFs included tax avoidance - is that still the position?

      On the narrow point: I am yet to see any compelling evidence against the well-documented case that multinational tax avoidance was understood as part of IFF, in the process of agreeing the SDG target. But still open to new evidence, of course.

      Thanks for clarifying Alex. There is important difference I think between "we are open to new evidence and analysis on this point" and "No amount of (re)interpretation or (re)definition can raise any legitimate question over this point"
