["Aikman-Scalese, Anne" <AAikman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear SCI Members,
In order to provide a bit of background for our discussion of the first request 
from Council concerning the interplay between the Resubmission of a Motion rule 
and the 10 day waiver rule, I am pasting below in black lettering a previous 
comment posted to the list by Amr last year.

As I understand it, the basic question is whether a properly resubmitted motion 
may benefit from the 10 day waiver rule or not.  In this regard, please note 
that an explanation as to the reason for resubmission of the motion previously 
defeated must be supplied and the explanation would normally be due 10 days 
prior to the Council meeting.  If the 10 day waiver rule is applied, then 
hypothetically, the explanation for resubmission of the motion could be 
supplied the same day of the Council meeting and the same day of any vote on 
the resubmitted motion, provided that the other conditions for application of 
the 10 day waiver rule are met.  These conditions include no objection from any 
Council member to waiving the 10 day rule.

I am also asking staff to be ready to post the text of 3.3.2 (10 day waiver 
rule) as actually adopted by the Council as well as 4.4.3 (Resubmitted motion) 
if needed.

Amr’s text from last year’s discussion is here:

Hi Greg and all,

I know I’ve brought this up repetitively and I hate being a nag, but there’s 
still an inconvenient loophole in this text regarding resubmission of motions. 
On its meeting of March 26th, 2014, the GNSO Council approved the SCI 
recommendation to amend the GNSO Operating Procedures by adding sections 4.3.3 
and 4.3.4 detailing the guidelines of motions being resubmitted. Section 4.3.3, 
claus number 1 reads as follows:

“1. Explanation: The Councilor submitting the motion must also submit an 
explanation for the resubmission of the motion. The explanation need not 
accompany the motion when it is resubmitted; however, the explanation must be 
submitted no later than the deadline for submitting the motion (i.e., no later 
than 23h59 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) on the day 10 calendar days before 
the Council meeting at which the motion is to be reconsidered). The explanation 
does not need to meet any requirements other than being submitted in a timely 
manner.”

If the SCI determines that it would like the 10-day rule waiver to also apply 
to motions being resubmitted (and not exclusively to motions being submitted 
for the first time) in its recommendation to the Council, then there needs to 
be clarifying text to that effect. If the SCI does not recommend that the 
waiver should apply to resubmitted motions, then no further action is 
necessary. If the former is true, and not the latter, the the way I read it, 
the required clarification should either be added as a fourth bullet to 3.3.2 
referencing 4.3.3, or perhaps an added numbered item to 4.3.4 (Limitations and 
Exceptions to Resubmission of a Motion) referring to the waiver rule in 3.3.2. 
Without these changes, I can’t see how the text of the operating procedures 
will support the waiver rule being applied to resubmitted motions in the event 
that the need arises.

Thanks.

Amr

Dear SCI members,

Please note that the meeting listed below will be the only SCI meeting prior to 
the ICANN 53 meeting in Buenos Aires.  However, staff have requested a slot for 
an SCI working session in Buenos Aires on the morning of Saturday, 20 June.  
Once that slot is confirmed we'll send a notification to the SCI list.

Have a nice weekend!

Julie
