RE: [gnso-restruc-dt] Q6. In section 3.2: Special circumstance on term limits to support geographic diversity

Dear All,

To assist your discussions on these questions, I thought it would be useful to 
provide the current proposed language on the table related to these questions.

Best Regards,

Currently Proposed Revisions:

Except in a "special circumstance," such as to meet geographic diversity 
requirements, where no alternative representative is available to serve, no 
Council member may be selected to serve more than two consecutive terms.  For 
these purposes, a person selected to fill a vacancy in a term shall not be 
deemed to have served that term. A former Council member must remain out of 
office for one full term prior to serving any subsequent term.  A "special 
circumstance" is approved by majority vote [of the House where the Council 
member will sit].

Q6. In section 3.2: Special circumstance on term limits to support
geographic diversity

An edit was made to change this from requiring both house to give
majority approval to requiring just the appropriate house's approval.

Should this change be retained?
