RE: [gnso-restruc-dt] Q18 on thresholds

["Nevett, Jonathon" <jnevett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The following is the relevant section from the July Report on this
point.  Thanks.  Jon


3.      Leadership 

a.      One GNSO Council Chair - elected by 60% of both houses.  [If no
one is elected Chair, the Council-level Nominating Committee Appointee
shall serve as a non-voting Chair of Council.]  This point is a
byproduct of the differences regarding the continued presence of a third
nominating committee appointee on the Council. The ISCP Constituency
joins the BC in its opposition to this provision.

b.      Two GNSO Vice Chairs - one elected from each of the voting
houses.  If the Council Chair is elected from one of the houses,
however, then the Council-level Nominating Committee Appointee shall
serve as one of the Vice Chairs in lieu of the Vice Chair from the house
of the elected Chair.  If the Chair is elected from one of the houses,
that person shall retain his/her vote in that house.

hi,

I thought so.

  But what was not resolved was
How the two were elected?
Are the rules for electing the same in both house?
And where are those rules documented?
60% threshold of a house?
...

I am assuming that each house elects its own.
