Thank you to @Kene_StableLab@Jamilya and @eugene for putting together the proposal to establish the Execution Oversight Council (EOC). We view this initiative as a foundational step toward strengthening Scroll DAO’s operational maturity and accountability, moving us toward greater decentralization and reduced reliance on the Foundation. This direction aligns with @alexsotodigital proposal [Toward a Role-Based Org Chart for Scroll,](https://forum.scroll.io/t/toward-a-role-based-org-chart-for-scroll/1042) which emphasizes clearer roles, responsibilities, and information flows.

Regarding the open question about the EOC’s enforcement: beyond its core mandate, the EOC has the potential to become a strategic asset for Scroll DAO’s long-term health and decentralization journey. Its comprehensive data collection, covering proposal tracking, service provider performance, and quality assurance, offers a unique opportunity to move beyond simple reporting. This information can and should be leveraged as **strategic intelligence** to guide future governance decisions.

For example, identifying trends in proposal delays or recurring quality issues could directly shape the design of future grant programs or refine proposal submission requirements. Ultimately, **the EOC’s quarterly reports should go beyond summarizing past activity and include actionable policy recommendations derived from aggregated insights** , transforming the EOC’s role from reactive oversight to proactive, strategic guidance.

Not only in regards to a conflict of interest, that you already addressed in this proposal, but also the overseeing of proposals that a team member from a professional delegate team submits when another team member is a member of the EOC, who is supposed to be overseeing for the DAO.

> And for delegates who are members of the EOC, if they are prohibited from leading proposals that have a financial benefit, does this also include as co-authors on proposals and what about proposals (for both professional delegate teams and indiv delegates) for non-financial proposals that they are either the author or co-author?

Additionally, we think the point raised by @coffee-crusher is an important and sensitive one when it comes to conflicts of interest. Clarifying COI rules for EOC members, especially around professional delegate teams, co-authorship, and proposals with financial benefits, is essential to ensure impartial oversight and maintain trust in the EOC’s decisions.
