Anne,

 

Thanks for the feedback.

 

  1. The generic call for volunteers is intended to be a standard or form document and not specific to this term. The call for volunteers specifies that the term begins at the AGM and runs for two years. It is the motion to reappoint Jeff that speaks to this specific term, and that motion specifies that his term ends at the AGM 2024.

 

  1. I realized there could be additional clarity in point 1 of the application process in the standard request for candidates.  Attached you will find revision taking into account your concerns: “The leadership of each Stakeholder Group / Constituency may submit the application of its candidate(s), which should include at a minimum a link to a completed and current statement of interest as well as a brief note explaining why the candidate has applied for this role and how the candidate meets the specific requirements by [DATE] at the latest to the GNSO Secretariat (gnso-secs@icann.org).” The idea is that this standard timeline can be customized by Council and the SSC for a selection process based on the date of the AGM and any other relevant information that must be taken into account. Before a request for candidates is launched, the relevant dates will be filled in.

 

Note, that any more additional substantive edits to the document will require us to bring it back to the GAC and we will need to defer the motion.

 

Best,

 

John

Subject: RE: Motion for approval of the updated role description GNSO Liaison to the GAC

 

Hi all,

I am not sure whether the Nom Com non-voting position can suggest friendly amendments to Motions, but as a member of the Standing Selection Committee, I think the Motion should

  1. State the dates of the current term with beginning and ending dates – is this linked to the July 1 Annual report to be made by the Liaison or some other date?
  2. State more explicitly that SOs and ACs must bring recommended candidates for the next GAC Liaison before the Council by a date that is the Council meeting occurring two months prior to the end of the term of the current GAC Liaison.

 

Thank you,

Anne
