AW: [council] Reminder - House Candidates for the Chair election n 28 October.

[<KnobenW@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Avri,


According to the council meeting on Sep 24 the plan is as follows:

Each House will elect a vice chair for the new bicameral Council: 
Nominations must be completed not later than 23 October 2009. 
Elections must be completed not later than Tuesday, 27 October 2009. 
Election requires a simple majority vote.


The plan (part 2) which you submit now calls for earlier dates.
This may not fit to the houses' schedules who don't have a chance to convene 
and vote before Seoul.

Further question: which council is going to elect the chair on Oct 28, the old 
or the new one?

Maybe I missed something but I need clarification on this.


Best regards
Wolf-Ulrich Knoben

Hi,

Just wanted to remind the members of the incoming houses that the  
deadline for the announcement of your single house candidate for chair  
is tomorrow.

> Part 2  _Each House determines a  Candidate_
>
> After council wide nominations are closed, each house will be allowed
> to select  one candidate for GNSO Council Chair from the pool of
> nominees.
>
> A candidate for GNSO Council Chair does not need to be a member of the

> as chair he/she would be a non-voting chair.
>
> Each house must announce their chosen candidate by 21 October 2009 at
> 23 UTC.
>
> The two houses may, separately, select the same candidate from the
> nominee pool if they so wish.
>
> The candidates from each of the houses shall have the opportunity of
