You would have to account for changed circumstances that could occur, e.g. between ICANN meetings or about every quarter. For example, there could be a deadlock and a suspension of a Working Group that might result in the need to introduce the same motion. Anne E.

Ron and Committee Members:
Off the cuff, I think there are two approaches to Ron's second question:
(1) How many times in a given period can a motion be reintroduced
And/or
(2) How much time must elapse before a failed motion can be reintroduced?
The legal, government, commercial, non-profit and academic worlds probably have a jillion examples for each. So any decision this group reaches will be, by some measure, arbitrary. :)
Therefore, I will start the bidding at: (1) twice, total and (2) 12 calendar months.
Thoughts?

Agree with Avri re 1-2; but would like a clarification as to why this would need to be on the 'consent' agenda. Can one of the lawyers in our midst clarify that for us?
Regarding what James noted as avoiding a 'zombie motion' (as in one that will never die) I agree that it would make sense to have a limit on how many times a motion can be resubmitted.
How many times does the Committee think would be appropriate?
Kind regards,
RA

Hi,
I support 1-3. As I understand it one would need to meet all 3 conditions, otherwise there would be no stopping it being on every agenda.
Also I thought some wanted to add a rate throttling mechanism or a maximum count.
I agree 4 is superfluous since any council member can ask for something to be taken off the consent agenda, not that i expect a resubmitted motion would ever make the consent agenda.

Dear SCI members,
As discussed on today's call, we will continue discussion on the list on re-submission of a motion. There was agreement on option 2 (see below), but not on which criteria to include (see comments from Anne and James in their emails below).
Please send your comments to the list. This also will be on the agenda at our next meeting.
Best regards,
Julie
Julie Hedlund, Policy Director
Procedure for Re-Submission of a Motion:
Option 2 -- Set one or more high-level criteria (in this order):
1) Provide a reasoning to justify the resubmission of a motion. Complete no later than the deadline for submitting a motion -- 8 days prior to the next GNSO Council meeting. 2) Publish the text of the re-submitted motion. Complete no later than the deadline for submitting a motion -- 8 days prior to the next GNSO Council meeting. 3) Require a seconder of the motion from each house as a prerequisite for placing the re-submission of the motion on the consent agenda. 4) Allow a councilor to ask for the re-submission of the motion to be taken off the consent agenda and to request a Council vote on whether to accept the re-submission. --------------------------------------------------------------- From: <Aikman-Scalese>, Anne <AAikman@lrlaw.com> Date: Wednesday, May 29, 2013 2:42 PM To: Ron Andruff <randruff@rnapartners.com>, James Bladel <jbladel@godaddy.com>, "gnso-improvem-impl-sc@icann.org" <gnso-improvem-impl-sc@icann.org> Cc: 'Jennifer Standiford' <JStandiford@web.com> Subject: RE: [gnso-improvem-impl-sc] REMINDER Re: Action item from SCI Meeting 06 March Re-Submitting a Motion
Ron, I had wanted to report to SCI that in its full meeting in Beijing, the IPC agreed to the first two criteria listed in Item 2 of the "one or more high level criteria" to be set for resubmitting a motion.

Hello SCI Team:
Last week, Jennifer and I were able to consult with the Registrar Stakeholder Group (RrSG) on this issue. We can report that RrSG members strongly favor Option #2.
Additionally, Registrars agree with the proposed criteria listed, -except- for item #2.4, which they note could be redundant if Items #2.1-#2.3 are followed. Finally, RrSG members would like to see the inclusion of some limitations (per year or minimum time frame) on how frequently a motion may be re-introduced.
We look forward to further discussions on our next call.
Thanks--
J.
