RE: [gnso-restruc-dt] Q5. In Section 3.1: Geographic distribution SG council members

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The questions below should focus only on the noncontracted/user house
but they apply to the contracted house as well.  For both houses, I had
recommended more flexible language to allow for exceptions when it was
not possible to identify representatives who will qualified and
available to serve from some geographic region(s).  In particular I
recommended the following: "For Stakeholder Groups with three seats on
the GNSO Council, no two representatives shall be citizens of the same
country or of countries located in the same Geographic Region except in
cases where a Stakeholder Group can demonstrate that there are no
eligible and available member representatives from three different
regions. For Stakeholder Groups with six seats on the GNSO Council, no
four representatives shall be citizens of the same country or of
countries in the same Geographic Region  except in cases where a
Stakeholder Group can demonstrate that there are no eligible and
available member representatives from four different regions."
