Hi Seun In response to your suggestion and question, I propose that the text in question be removed and replace with the following: The Membership Selection Process of the CSC Charter calls for due consideration to be given, to the extent possible, to form a CSC that has diversity in terms of geography and skill set. To that end the composition of the slate will be reviewed during two points in the selection process: firstly by the RySG and ccNSO and secondly by the ccNSO and GNSO. To your point about candidates being rejected: this is not the intention. However, given that each SO/AC will be nominating candidates individually there is a possibility that the full slate could be without diversity in terms of skill set and geography, so a step has been built into the process to address this situation should it eventuate. It is also recommended that each SO/AC provide a preferred and secondary candidate for consideration. I hope this response addresses your concerns.

SO: While the above is practical with representative that have more than one member, i don't think it applies to all. So i suggest rewording as "Unless the applicant pool and open seat does not allow..." It should be noted that when approving the final composition of the CSC membership, which includes members and liaisons, the ccNSO and GNSO Councils will consider diversity in making their determination. SO: Does the last sentence imply that nominations from other members can be rejected by the DUO and that it can be rejected on grounds of diversity as well? So the DUO can say because we already have many female in the CSC we don't accept the single female nomination made by ALAC. I don't think that should be the intent at all.
