In the past 10 years,5 they are now relying on consultants, and this has weakened the documents being produced.

The AU did an excellent job in the first 10 years by building relations with academics and bringing them into the discussions, policy development and validation. However now, it has retreated from that.

The AU's finances are also dependent from outside and the AU should exercise self release. So that they are not influenced from outside.
