Planned Maintenance - Notifications should be sent to a wide audience to prevent major incidents being raised or to prevent App Support being woken up uneccesary.  Until the outlook distribution lists have been reviewed we should send comms out via the MI Portal as there is lots of nested DL's within each email sent.
