information about the structure and operations of the board and its relationship to the investment adviser, the distributor, and others important to the fund;
assistance to directors in discharging their responsibilities by providing them with enough information to enable them to understand their duties and to ask the right questions;
suggestions as to how independent directors can best fulfill their responsibilities by reference to industry practice and legal requirements;
and more.
