[registrars] Motion on Travel Funding

[Ross Rader <ross@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I would like to propose that the constituency adopt the following  
motion as its position regarding travel funding for GNSO councillors;
--
Whereas the GNSO Council is composed of constituency representatives  
from specific and significant groups of stakeholders, plus liaisons  
and nominating committee appointees, and;
Whereas, those groups of stakeholders are private sector participants  
with a professional interest in the work of ICANN and the GNSO, and;
Whereas those participants include representatives from a broad cross- 
section of well-funded corporations, professional associations, lobby  
firms and other organizations,
Therefore be it resolved

a) That the GNSO Registrar Constituency does not believe it is  
appropriate to fund the participation of GNSO Constituency Councillors  
in any way, including to fund travel to any ICANN meetings or events.
b) That the Constituency adopt this as its formal position and  
instructs its elected representatives to vigorously advocate this  
position.
