I am pleased to nominate Osvaldo Novoa.

member of the ISPCP.

He is a high ranking executive at ANTel

  Dear ISPCP members

   

  Following closure of the nomination period on 22nd September, only one candidate had been nominated and seconded, Wolf-Ulrich Knoben.

   

  That leaves the other Council position open. I'm aware from conversations with many of you that the level of commitment required to participate effectively as a GNSO Councillor often appears a little daunting, but it is an extremely important role. On that basis I'd like to propose that the nomination period is extended by one week, now ending on Thursday 29th September at 23.99 UTC.

   

  If required the election would then follow, commencing Monday 3rd October, ending Friday 7th October at 23.99 UTC.

   

  That still enables us to meet the requirement of announcing our new Council representatives prior to the Dakar meeting and provides the additional benefit of allowing further discussion and consideration by those members eligible to stand for this important position.

   

  Unless anyone raises an objection on the list, we will proceed with this revised timetable. As before, please send all nominations to the ISPCP list. If you require more information or wish to discuss any points related to standing for election you are also welcome to contact me off list.

   

  Thank You

   

  Tony
