• Management and operation of the NGPP.
• Sharing of resources on the NGPP.
• Assess rights and privileges of authorized users.
• Preventive actions and contingency plans for risk management.
• Security.
• Service continuity.
• Disruptive recovery.
• Code of conduct for users.

The Governance Council will also develop a framework for service level management to ensure that NGPP service levels meet desired objectives, to monitor and review the performance and utilization of the NGPP, and to develop a framework for economic model for next phase of NGPP.

The Governance Council will have executive powers to warn and sanction users who abuse their rights or misuse the facilities provided for by the NGPP. The council will remain active for a period, no longer than the duration of the NGPP.
