<p class="MsoNormal">I am more than a little troubled that the discussion you refer to happened in the context of "votes" balance when the imbalance in representation was supposed to be "balanced" by giving proportional weight to the "votes" each SGs could
have. Now, when the voting is gone (as we encouraged not even refer to it), all we left with is:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">"<i>For the purpose of assessing consensus, and in order to reflect and respect the current balance and bicameral structure of the GNSO Council, the Chair shall apply necessary and appropriate weight to the positions of the respective groups,
noting that increased membership from BC, IPC and ISPCP relative to the CPH and NCSG upsets that balance. The CPH, and NCSG or any SG or C that does not fulfil its entire membership allowance must not be disadvantaged as a result during any assessment of
consensus</i>".<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">While I understand that the purpose of this phrase is to fix the imbalance, I do not see how it strictly binds the chair for the purpose of assessing consensus. I am not concerned that we would be outvoted in some way, I am concerned that
we will be outnumbered, and our position will suffer if the strict rules for balance in assessing consensus are not implemented. <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Perhaps the consensus assessment rules for the chair should be rephrased that the chair "must" apply weight and provide a clearer description as to what this all means. Right now it is too vague as to what the chair should do and how with
this imbalance if there is a need for a consensus call. <o:p></o:p></p>

being raised again on the list, days later. As we discussed, the point was to get every viewpoint to the table and to staff it appropriately with the needed # of volunteers (even if it doesn’t fit neatly within the arbitrary SG structure that was imposed
years ago). That is why every viewpoint has 3 members – so we can get work done. Your concerns about the volume of representation seems to relate to a sense that you would be “outvoted” in some way, but as we discussed for a long time at Council table, consensus
calls would be taken by along the lines of 1 voice each, not according to the # of people each C has. It is hard to recap what was, I believe, probably over an hour of discussion on this again-raised point. In any event, I don’t think disenfranchising the
IPC, BC and ISPs is any sort of solution.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

I don't know what's not. I can't believe this even could be discussed seriously. 18 members, 9 of them from SG? This math fails me completely and there is no different lens or any lens I can consider this through as any kind of fairness. Not even remotely. <o:p></o:p></p>

the imbalance in SG representation is astounding - CSG will have 9 reps and other SGs only 3 (including Rr and Ry SGs). I understand that this came from initial counting mistake, but this should be fixed as soon as possible. I thought it wasn't even a subject

I don't believe, for example, that reducing the numbers for the collective CSG and NCSG provides an appropriate balance with the CPH. I also don't understand the rationale to have 3 GAC members, but reduce the number for the other SO/ACs.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
