<DIV>I recall that this was one of our fundamental intentions: every council
member should be eligible for council chair.</DIV>
<DIV>I think it was taken into consideration when we discussed the timeline
starting with the announcement of the election schedule. Therefore new council
members (SG-, C- or NomCom-appointed) should be in place when it comes to chair
candidate nominations.</DIV>

<DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I’m not certain if there’s anything I missed, but if I’m not mistaken, we
did discuss changing the eligibility criteria for Council Chair nominations.
Currently, nominees must be sitting Council members. This means that incoming
Councillors are not eligible to be nominated.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Alternatively, should the Council Chair elections fail in a first round,
and a second round becomes necessary, then the newly seated Council members will
be, by then, eligible to be nominated.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I believe we did briefly discuss considering changing the guidelines so
that incoming Councillors could also be eligible should a House wish to nominate
one. But I don’t recall any decisions being made.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Amr</DIV>

<DIV>Hi Sara,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Can you clarify what you mean by voting/eligibility/election
timing? During the discussion on last week's call it was agreed that the
deadline for Scenarios 2, 3, and 4 was 14 calendar days for the vacant
House/each House to designate its Interim Vice Chair. But perhaps that’s
not the timing you are referencing? There also was discussion of the
election timeline on previous calls. I did not attach the final version
with the notes below, but I’ve attached it here.</DIV>

<DIV>Hi All,</DIV>

<DIV>I was looking over notes/emails regarding Sub Team B and have a
question. I seem to recall some discussions re
voting/eligibility/election timing maybe a month or two ago, but did we land
on a conclusion? Or perhaps we still have plans to discuss further? If
