Hi,



This sounds better to me. I had also considered suggesting this change when I introduced the bracketed text, but didn’t want to confuse anyone, and figured using consistent language at the time was clearer (since “the vacant House” was already in the text at the time).



Thanks.



Amr

Dear SCI members,



Mary and I have a minor suggested change for your consideration: For the sentences in sections 2.2.1(1) and 2.2.1(2) instead of “the vacant House” we suggest that it might be more clear to say, “the House with the vacant Vice-Chair position”.



Kind regards,

Julie

Dear SCI members,



Please see the attached second revision of the Chair/Vice Chair Procedures for your review based on the discussion during yesterday’s SCI call.  Per the actions items from the call the second revision contains the following changes:



1.      Revised the following sentence in sections 2.2.1(1) and 2.2.1(2) to include the bracketed text: “The deadline for the vacant House to designate its Interim Vice Chair is [no later than 23h59 Coordinate Universal Time (UTC)] 14 calendar days following the Council meeting at which no Chair was conclusively elected.”

2.      Change the title of the table to “Chair Election Timeline” and include the suggested changes from Wolf-Ulrich in the table as follows: The date for the NomCom selectees announcement should also apply for the announcement of new councilors sent by the SGs/Cs.  Changed the title of the third column to “time available”, and changed the time available for candidates to submit statements to 12 days.



Please send any comments or edits to the list and we will hope to finalize these procedures by the next SCI call on 02 June.



Kind regards,

Julie

All,



following the SCI call I’ve slightly revised the election table (see attached). I think the date for the NomCom selectees announcement should also apply for the announcement of new councillors sent by the SGs/Cs.


Best regards

Wolf-Ulrich
