1.- To Antonio Medina’s questions;
Is this process for the "selection" o "election” of LACRALO
representative with the ALAC?
Election : It starts as if nothing
would have existed before.
Is
Lance Hinds a delegate of an accredited ALS?
yes, his ALS is DEVnet from Guyana.
For this new process, is Lance Hinds prevented from attending?
No, he is not prevented.
In affirmative case, is there any statement in this regard?
In negative case, can he be nominated?
He can be nominated
Are there any other ALSes prevented or ALSes representatives
prevented which cannot be nominated?
Only ALSes from Brazil and
México cannot be nominated, as pointed out in the call for
nominations.
Is there something else we should know with anticipation so
situations as those occurred are not repeated?
The call for nominations will
explain it.
2.- To Alejandro Pisanty’s request
Alejandro pointed out that the previous call
for nominations left a contentious point, which created a
controversy in the recent suspended voting process: “the
determination of eligibility of candidates, in particular in
this case, the determination in case of possible impairments due
to unsolvable conflicts of interests”
We have analyzed the possibility to
include this requirement, but we cannot find any explicit
reference in the Operating Principles or RoPs. Also, each
candidate shall complete his Statement of Interest (SOI) ,
where it can be seen, if there is any conflict of interest.
In short, it will be left to each voter’s judgement if any
candidate has a conflict of interest or not.
We think that in
the future we should include an explicit rule regulating this
issue in our organizing documents.
3.- To Fátima Cambronero’s request
Fátima
pointed out two errors in the communication we sent. The first
one, to exclude the Argentinean nationality for a future
candidacy and that the calculation of the timeframes was
calendar days not working days.
Regarding the first point,
we have debated this and understand that although the norm is
not absolutely clear, we shall proceed to adopt the
interpretation provided by Fatima and therefore a candidate
from Argentina can be a candidate.
