<DIV>Dear SCI members,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Note that per the SCI Charter, "Unless otherwise determined by the SCI
members, committee decisions will be made by “full consensus” process as
described in the GNSO Working Group Guidelines (see section 3.6)." Thus,
as agreed at the SCI meeting today, staff is requesting a consensus call on the
language provided by Greg Shatan concerning changes to the GNSO Council
Operating Procedures on resubmitting a motion. Please see the attached
redlined and clean versions of the language. Please review this language
in your Constituencies and Stakeholder Groups if you have not already done
so. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><I><B>If there are no objections or changes to the language received by
<U>Wednesday, 08 January 2014</U>, the language will be presumed to be accepted
by full consensus.</B></I></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If the language is approved the next step will be for staff to prepare a
redlined version of the GNSO Council Operating Procedures that will be put out
for public comment for 21 days. However, as noted on today's call this may
be combined with changes to the GNSO Working Group Guidelines relating to the
working group self-assessment survey (as being prepared by Ken Bour).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Best regards,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
