You are correct and it was my mistake.

I had thought that Item 2, Deferral of Motions, was actually agreed to at the meeting on the 14th of November, which Wolf-Ulrich confirmed today. The language (the response from the SCI to the Council on this issue) had been sent out with a minor change by J. Scott to the full SCI following the meeting in Toronto. There were no further changes to the response language. Thus, all that is necessary is for Wolf-Ulrich to inform the Council of the result of the discussion using this response as agreed to by the SCI: "The SCI was asked to consider the current GNSO Council informal practice whereby a party may request the deferral of a motion to a later date in those situations where a formal process for a deferral is not specifically provided (for example, certain deferrals are foreseen as part of the GNSO PDP, see http://gnso.icann.org/council/annex-2-pdp-manual-16dec11-en.pdf). The SCI discussed this practice and whether there was a need to create a procedure to formalize this informal practice. After much debate, the SCI concluded that the current practice of allowing for the deferral of motions was done as a matter of courtesy at the discretion of the Chair of the GNSO Council. For this reason, the SCI concluded that there was no need to create a formal procedure at this time. However, the SCI felt that it was necessary to explicitly state that there is no rule that the Chair must always exercise his or her discretion in the affirmative or the negative. Given that the current informal practice is at the discretion of the Chair, the Chair can exercise that same discretion in considering whether to grant or deny any request and can also exercise his or her discretion when determining how to handle any specific situation that may occur with regard to this informal practice.' If I have misunderstood your reference again I apologize.
