Sufficient rationale shall be provided to justify the requested change to the Cardano Blockchain. The rationale shall include, at a minimum, a title, abstract, reason for the proposal, and relevant supporting materials. The content of every on-chain governance action must be identical to the final off-chain version of the proposed action.\"\n\nThis governance action includes a valid URL and hash, which matches the hash of the off-chain documentation referenced. The rationale also meets the minimum content specified in this section.\n\nAdditionally; ARTICLE IV, Section 3, Paragraph 1 states \"Withdrawals from the Cardano Blockchain treasury that would cause the Cardano Blockchain treasury balance to violate the then applicable net change limit shall not be permitted.\"\n\nThe net change limit in effect at the time of submission of this vote on-chain, is the governance action with ID \"gov_action1nd3t833j7v5sz65k3tp9yyvztw60sjcjgcgjr37682s3m7frwrusqmd2k80\".\n\n- A.

Amount of this Treasury Withdrawal: 1500000 ada\n- E. \"C\" plus \"D\" = 1500000 ada\n- F. \"A\" minus \"E\" = 348500000 ada\n\nAs the \"F\" value is zero or greater then this Governance Action is Valid in accordance with this article.\n\nAdditionally; ARTICLE IV, Section 4 states \"Any governance action requesting ada from the Cardano Blockchain treasury shall require an allocation of ada as a part of such funding request to cover the cost of periodic independent audits and the implementation of oversight metrics as to the use of such ada. Contractual obligations governing the use of ada received from the Cardano Blockchain treasury pursuant to a Cardano Blockchain ecosystem budget shall include dispute resolution provisions.\"\n\nThis governance action specifies the following which fulfils the requirements in this section:\n\n\"The 'ad-hoc' scope of work makes provision for a financial auditor who will be picked at a later stage. To facilitate the work of the auditor, we will attach metadata with key 1694 to transactions spending from the smart contracts, in accordance with CIP-100.\" and \"Our off-chain legal framework knwon as PRAGMA's Maintainer Committee Framework makes provision for a dispute resolution for contractors receiving an allocation in the context of this treasury withdrawal.\"\n\nAdditionally; Article VII, Section 6 states \"Any ada received from a Cardano Blockchain treasury withdrawal, so long as such ada is being held directly or indirectly by an administrator prior to further disbursement, must be kept in one or more separate accounts that can be audited by the Cardano Community, and such accounts shall not be delegated to an SPO but must be delegated to the predefined auto abstain voting option.\"\n\nThis governance action specifies the following withdrawal addresses, which at the time of assessment were not delegated to an SPO and are delegated to the auto abstain voting option:\n- stake17xnev6rc25xwz8kg4qae8lq6dcg964z00py5gqgxd387pncv8fq8g\n- stake17xd74ehu0l4d5mx0sfz4fd0r5jvw4v2jqkkfyjxrlwvnkhccrqj9l\n- stake17xrh74lqhhxgzelfsn0wq5kcm4e5dmluprlcpg5mq30p5yqhgk7k8\n- stake17xrqac8khkprtpp2jz90mpkujjwye8dt6a9sjewrvjudx9ggg4u5y\n- stake178jztxzwynajcp4dva5gy9udmmnwg7ueffvf4c7hpjqhc7gtj5nzz\n\nFinally; the guardrails that require consideration for this governance action are TREASURY-01a, TREASURY-02a, TREASURY-03a and TREASURY-04a.
