Thanks Avri. I understand your concern and if those on the PPSC and PDP-WT
or the Council believe that I will not be able to do both, I will step down
as Chair of both the SC and WT.
I will note, however, that there is no bylaw or operational procedure that
bars a council member from serving as the chair of a working group and I am
fine with continuing to serve as well.
That said, I am happy to follow the will of the Council and the policy
teams.

hi,
As I have done before in other circumstances, I question the legitimacy of
having a chair for the PPSC or the PDP WT who has ascended to the GNSO
council and is one of its vice-chairs I believe that the influence a
council member, who is in the position of approving or disapproving the work
of PPSC and its WTs is not consistent with also being a Chair of either the
PPSC or of a WT.
This is a personal question at this point, but I will be forwarding this
note to the NCSG to seek their advice on the issue.
thanks
