<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">-- Bylaws are not specific on how an individual should submit a petition. This language here is inconsistent with section 4.1<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">-- The language in the Bylaws says they are subject to the internal procedures of the Decisional Participant. If we want to go through SGs/Cs then we should develop a procedure to do that.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">-- Look at what we have written in the rejection action petition process. The basic should be a reasonable balance.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">-- Don’t think the SGs and Cs have to be factored into the discussion, but an individual acting alone has no ability to obligate the Decisional Participant to take a decision.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the SG/C or the GNSO Council. “Such an individual must submit his/her Petition meeting the requirements of 4.2.2 below to 1) a GNSO Stakeholder Group or Constituency for transmission to the GNSO Council or 2) to the GNSO Council directly.”

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">-- Does the above mean that the SG/C has to approve the petition? Need to alert the Council/Councilors that the SGs/Cs will need their own procedures to deal with petitions and also be alerted to the timing.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
