Re: [AFRI-Discuss] MOTION FOR AMENDMENTS TO RULES OF PROCEDURE IN AFRALO

Dear all, It's good that we are seeing a lot of new members to the group. However I just like to provide some clarification on process. The work of the ROP WG started since 2014 with members joining along the way. There are a number of recommendations that the working group have drafted and that is what was presented to the ALSes during the general assembly in ZA. Those recommendations and the new one that has been proposed by Pastor Peter will all still come back to the ALSes for their consideration and approval. I am saying this so that people within AFRALO will understand the following: 1. The ultimate decision is not within the ROP WG but for the entire ALSes within AFRALO. 2. Whatever the working group come out with is a draft that will still come back here to the larger group for consideration. 3. There are a number of recommendation that the working group is discussing and that of "term limits" that has just been proposed is just one of them. 4. The work of the working group is open and can be followed on the wiki even if you are not a member of the group, you are free to provide your comments on the wiki: https://community.icann.org/m/mobile.action#page/48350515 Regards On Jul 5, 2017 10:08 AM, "Roger Oteng Baah" <roger.baah(a)gmail.com> wrote: I think we need the full complement of this house to debate this, so the group should be open to all.

Dear Silvia,Hope this meets you well?Please help to have this document circulated to the ALAC-REGIONAL LEADERS Mailing list for their information.I hope this will equally generate interest for discussion as there appears to be a common trend amongst all the leaders at the Regional Levels to perpetuate themselves in office and representations in ICANN to the disadvantage of the whole group. We shall continue to have this discussed and debated in AFRALO to move it forward.Thanking you for your assistanceBest Pastor Peters Osawaru OMORAGBON, Treasurer, Central Association of Nigerians in the UK-CANUK Executive President/CEO-Nurses Across the Borders Inc.(USA & NIGERIA) President, Diaspora Nurses Association of Nigeria- DNAN International Liaison Officer, Nigerian Nurses Charitable Association-UK (NNCA-UK General Secretary, Civil Society Network on Climate Change in Nigeria Fellow-Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers- ICANNFellow-Open Society Institute, BudapestDesignated Focal Person-United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change- UNFCCC in NigeriaBoard Member, Conference of NGOs in Consultative Relationship with the UN- CONGO Member, Steering Committee, Regional Committee for Africa-Conference of NGOs in Consultative Relationship with the UN- CONGOTel: +441438729726, +234-8052658024,Email: nursesacrosstheborders(a)yahoo.com, petersomoragbon2(a)yahoo.co.uk, www.nursesacrosstheborders.org

Re: [AFRI-Discuss] [afralo-rop] MOTION FOR AMENDMENTS TO RULES OF PROCEDURE IN AFRALO
by Alan Greenberg July 2, 2017

LACRALO has had a 1-term limit for RALO-appointed ALAC members ever since their rules were written. The only exception was those members seated prior to the rules being written (they were limited to one term following the adoption of the rules - that is, the rule was not made retroactive). NARALO has a 2-term limit, but if someone serves a partial term due to a resignation or other vacancy, the partial term may or may not count as a term depending on how long it is).
