Dear Councilors, You will recall that at the last Council meeting it was agreed that continue further discussion of the two draft requests to the SCI would continue via email, with a view toward a decision at the next Council meeting on 16 April 2015. Please let Avri, the Council liaison to the SCI, or any of us staff support members know if you have any questions or comments about the draft requests or templates. For your convenience, the two draft templates are attached to this email. They can also be accessed on the GNSO website at http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/drafts.

Dear Councilors,
Attached please find two draft requests that can be sent from the Council to the GNSO Standing Committee for Improvements (SCI). As you¹ll recall, the SCI update session in Singapore concluded with an action item for Avri, as Council liaison to the SCI, working with staff, to draft these template requests concerning two issues: (1) dealing with the Council¹s uncodified practice as regards proposers, seconders and friendly amendment of motions; and (2) the unresolved question of potential overlap between the rules concerning waiver of the 10-day motion deadline and the resubmission of motions.
We expect this topic to be on the agenda for the upcoming Council meeting, and so are sending these to you at this time.
Thanks and cheers Mary
