I received the attached note from Carlos Dionisio Aguirre regarding the NomCom appointees to the GNSO and noted the need to provide advice on the ICANN Bylaws. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Article X, Section 3.e requires the NomCom to appoint three members of the GNSO Council. Of those appointees, one shall be non-voting, and “one voting representative shall be assigned to each House . . . by the Nominating Committee.” This Bylaws provision requires the NomCom to assign voting representatives among the GNSO’s contracted and non-contracted party houses. Pursuant to the Bylaws, this assignment work should not be left to the GNSO.</p><p class="MsoNormal">I appreciate that with the GNSO Restructuring, the initial assignment of the single NomCom Appointee (NCA) selected by the NomCom in 2010 did not pose a lot of complexity. However, now that the restructured form of the GNSO Council is in place and the NomCom is making appointments for multiple NCAs, it is important for the NomCom to complete the assignment process and identify the roles of the NCAs to the GNSO. If possible, I encourage the NomCom to complete this assignment process prior to the ICANN AGM in Dakar, Senegal and the seating of the new GNSO Council members (28 October 2011).</p><p class="MsoNormal">Due to the NomCom’s appointment rotation (2 NCAs to the GNSO in odd years, 1 NCA in even years), it may be beneficial for the NomCom and GNSO to consult together to determine if the GNSO would be better served by having both voting NCAs rotate at the same time, or if it is preferable to have 1 voting and 1 non-voting NCA rotate at the same time, with the term of the other voting NCA rotating in even years. Further, as the NomCom and the GNSO continue dialogue on identifying skill sets for the NCAs to the GNSO, skills desirable for each role (Non-Contracted House NCA, Contracted House NCA and Non-Voting NCA) could be identified for NomCom consideration.</p><div>I look forward to seeing you in Dakar. If you have any questions, or we can be of assistance to you, please let us know.</div><div><br></div><div apple-content-edited="true">John Jeffrey<br>General Counsel & Secretary<br>ICANN<br><a href="mailto:JJ@ICANN.org"></a><a href="mailto:JJ@ICANN.org">JJ@ICANN.org</a></div></div></blockquote></blockquote></div>
