Dear Proposer,

Thank you for your proposal. Our **first** vote on this proposal is **AYE**.

The **Small Spender** track requires **50% participation and simple majority of non-abstain votes** according to our [voting policy v0.2](https://docs.permanence.io/voting_policy/voting_policy_v0.2.html), and any referendum in which the **majority of members vote abstain receives an abstain vote**. This proposal has received **five aye and zero nay** votes from **ten available members**. Below is a summary of our members' comments:

> Voters approved the Treasury Guardian demo, citing its potential to advance milestone-based payouts and streamline treasury operations. They expressed interest in observing the tool's evolution and noted that the experiment was a critical step toward refining on-chain cancellation practices. A few voters mentioned that while the concept was promising, the user interface could benefit from additional improvements. Overall, they perceived the proposal as an innovative approach to enhance transparency and effectiveness in government spending, and they supported the trial phase as a valuable experiment in increasing community involvement and treasury efficiency on both Kusama and Polkadot platforms.

Dear community,
This referendum is part of the roadmap for the Treasury Guardian tool as outlined [here](https://forum.polkadot.network/t/treasury-guardianship/14145).

This referendum contains 1 scheduled payout transaction to Mr. Bill Laboon. Should our demo be successful, this scheduled spend will first be delayed and then canceled (sorry Bill) with our [tool](https://www.treasury-guardian.app/).

Our project is about allowing milestone-based payouts at scale and with this Referendum we hope to showcase how that could work. With this tool we aim to improve treasury efficiency and get more eyes and involvement into Kusama and Polkadot OpenGov.
