Robert The sitting ALAC members cannot serve on the NomCom at all - that's in ICANN's bylaws. But the Chair of the ALAC must be a sitting ALAC member. So it would be weird to say - the Chair of the ALAC can't serve on the ALAC... Besides - the ALAC has its own rules of procedure, and NARALO's rules shouldn't conflict with those, or with the ICANN bylaws, or else how do we sort that out? If would make sense if it read - The Chair of the NARALO shall be ineligible to serve on the ALAC or on ICANN's Nominating Committee in any year in which he or she serves as Chair of the NARALO General Assembly." Or Any member of the NARALO shall be ineligible to serve on the ALAC or on ICANN's Nominating Committee in any year in which he or she serves as Chair of the NARALO General Assembly.

This seems to indicate that the chair of alac can not also serve on the alac or ICANN nominating committee - which seems ok to me. The question is, are we referring to the chair of NA/AlAC or ALAC as a whole ? My view is ALAC should have transparency and openness as a core value. Consequently, nomcom members should be as independent as possible. Practically this means that those serving in any sort of capacity in ICANN related structures should NOT BE eligible to serve on NomCom. Applying this to ALAC - any chair , be it regional , general assembly or the structure as a whole - shall be ineligible to serve on any Nominating committee setup by ALAC, ICANN or any ICANN related structures. regards Robert
This seems to be a typo - should be the Chair of the NARALO. The Chair of the ALAC must serve on the ALAC.
