Re: [gnso-improvem-impl-sc] Action items: SCI Meeting 05 August
Hello everyone, Just following up on Action Item #2: the ICANN Bylaws provide for the election of two Board members by the GNSO (one from the Contracted Parties House, and one from the Non-Contracted Parties House). What the GNSO Operating Procedures require in that regard is a set of rules for such an election by each House, to be added as an Annex to the GNSO Operating Procedures. I¹m informed that the Secretariat is already working with the CPH to finalize their rules, and will do the same with the NCPH after they elect a candidate for Board Seat 14 (which they are currently in the process of doing). As such, while there is an item to be developed for the Operating Procedures, it is currently "in process" and so the SCI will not be required to review the existing provisions in the GNSO Operating Procedures at this time. FYI, the pertinent provision in the Operating Procedures states: "Each House is responsible for establishing its own internal procedures for nominations, interviews, voting, and candidate selection; however, those processes must be documented and forwarded to the GNSO Council for inclusion as ANNEXES to the GNSO Operating Procedures.² I hope this is helpful.
