In particular, staff had reminded the Council that attendance at SCI meetings has been lacking recently, and thus the Council deemed that a review of members is necessary to ensure participation from all representatives. You will find the current membership on the SCI wiki at: <a href="https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosci/3.+Members">https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosci/3.+Members</a> and for reference I have included it below. You will note that representatives are missing for the following organizations:</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; "><br></div><div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; "><font face="Calibri,sans-serif">Business Constituency (BC): Primary Member -- Angie Graves; Alternate Member — TBD</font></div><div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; "><font face="Calibri,sans-serif">Nominating Committee Appointee: Primary Member: </font>TBD; Alternate Member: Thomas Rickert (Council term ends at AGM 2015, 22 October 2015)</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; ">Not-for-Profit Organizations Constituency - NPOC Constituency: Primary Member -- <font face="Calibri,sans-serif">Rudi Vansnick, (Vice Chair 2015); Alternate Member — TBD</font></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; "><font face="Calibri,sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="Calibri,sans-serif">As noted below Anne Aikman-Scalese is the 2015 SCI Chair. </font><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; ">Rudi Vansnick recently joined the SCI and volunteered to be the Vice Chair.
