Re-Submitting a Motion: Suggestions from Sub-Group
Dear SCI members, On behalf of Sub-Group that is considering the issue of re-submitting a motion (Anne Aikman-Scalese, Avri Doria, Thomas Rickert and Mary Wong) here are suggested approaches for your consideration. 1. Clarify that the Conflicts of Interest issue is separate from the issue of re-submitting a motion and the SCI has yet to discuss conflicts of interest 2. Possible Options for Addressing the Re-Submission of a Motion: a. Leave up to discretion of the Chair b. Set one or more high-level criteria (in this order): 1) Change in circumstance that merits the resubmission of a motion. 2) Publish the text of the re-submitted motion as of the deadline for submission of motions (8 days prior to the next 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. These also will be available in the Adobe Connect room for discussion at our meeting today. Best regards, Julie Julie Hedlund, Policy Director
Thanks Julie. Do we have a revised draft from Marika of the PDP suspension language that includes my comments and the reference that Mary and I made to a written Termination summary or Suspension summary?

Dear SCI members, Based on our discussion today, please see below revised options. Please let me know if you have any changes. Once the SCI agrees to the options for consideration, the action is for members to circulate them to their Constituencies and Stakeholder Groups. These also are posted to the wiki. Best regards, Julie Julie Hedlund, Policy Director Possible Options for Addressing the Re-Submission of a Motion: 1. Leave up to discretion of the Chair 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.
Thanks for the quick turnaround, Julie! It looks fine to me - one question I had for everyone, in light of some of the discussion earlier today, is whether we ought to include a short explanatory note after setting out the options. Basically, I had in mind something like this: Notes: - 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 are conjunctive criteria, i.e. all three steps have to be completed. - 2.3 and 2.4 relate only to how the resubmitted motion is placed back on the Council's agenda, i.e. they take place prior to the Council's actually discussing (and voting on) the actual substance of the resubmitted motion, and allow for the possibility of there being a vote on whether to accept the resubmission itself in the first place.

I thought we would be presenting the possibility of two out of the three higher level "conjunctive" criteria to our constituencies. I don't see all three together flying at IPC.
