Could someone please clarify the use of the word “conform” in this sentence of this Motion? Do we mean “in accordance with” the applicable procedure?
“The GNSO Council leadership team subsequently met to agree who from the Council leadership should perform the role of GNSO representative to the Empowered Community
Administration conform the
applicable procedure,
and mutually agreed that Greg DiBiase, GNSO Council Vice-Chair, would serve in the role.”

Thanks John – very helpful. So does Staff then set a reminder to bring this up at a certain time before the 2024 AGM and to have Council approve a timeline?

Good catch Anne. Staff had made changes to the redline, which I did not circulate. Please see attached correct clean version..
As to your question, the standard request for candidates says “The Liaison shall strive to give at least two months notice before stepping down to provide
sufficient time to conduct an Expression of Interest process to identify a replacement.” This applies to a Liaison who is stepping down at an AGM or one who is stepping down “out of cycle” at another point in their term. A number of factors
may impact the exact dates that the EOI opens and closes relative to the meeting in which Council appoints the Liaison, for example:
The generic timeline provides flexibility to fill in appropriate dates accordingly. As it is known that Jeff will term out at the 2024 AGM, the upcoming EOI in 2024 can be initiated well in
advance and will include a specific timeline for the selection process. The SSC will be provided this timeline when Council assigns the selection process to the SSC. Does that answer your question?

Thanks John. I believe the word “requirements” after the word, “specific”, may be missing from the new version you sent. Here is my copy and paste from that version:
I guess the question I was asking is whether the DATE to be filled in should be the date two months prior to the end of the term of the present GAC Liaison. (Asking that as a member of the Standing Selection Committee) In this language,
the DATE appears uncertain or To Be Determined. Elsewhere in the doc there is a reference to the current GAC Liaison letting people know if he or she plans to continue at least two months before the end of his or her term. In this case, we know that Jeff
won’t continue. So shouldn’t the date for submissions be two months prior to the end of the relevant AGM?
I don’t think the date for submissions from SOs and ACs in relation to the next liaison would require GAC review. It’s procedural, not substantive, but it seems that deadline should be clear to all.

Anne,
Thanks for the feedback.
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,
