each House or majority of one House;<BR>2. Initiate a Policy Development
Process (“PDP”) Within Scope (as described in Annex A): requires an
affirmative vote of more than 33% of each House or more than 66% of one
House;<BR>3. Initiate a PDP Not Within Scope: requires an affirmative vote of
more than 75% of one House and a majority of the other House (“GNSO

Supermajority: requires an affirmative vote of a majority of each House and
further requires that one GNSO Council member representative of at least 3 of
the 4 Stakeholder Groups supports the Recommendation;<BR>5. Approve a PDP
Recommendation With a GNSO Supermajority: requires an affirmative vote of a
GNSO Supermajority; and<BR>6. Approve a PDP Recommendation Imposing New

provision.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
