**Corrigendum**: On the [11-04 G&R Call](https://youtu.be/ASoEefJcG2k?t=264) I announced* [MIP55c3-SP01: Adding Special Purpose Fund for Feasibility Study for Securitisation Framework in Singapore](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip55c3-sp01-adding-special-purpose-fund-for-feasibility-study-for-securitisation-framework-in-singapore/10493) as one of the November Formal Submissions, and you may have noticed that there's no Ratification Poll for it. The reason for this is that the proposal is incomplete. We believed at that point that the missing, not-quite-of-the-essence-but-still-necessary bits that were missing would be filled in in time, but sadly that was not the case :(

## Things to Come

There will be no Governance Cycle on December. The next Formal Submission Window will open on January 3<sup>rd</sup>---56 days from now.
