<div dir="ltr">hi all,<div><br></div><div>I am sending this as a reminder and handover. </div><div>I already sent an email suggesting to start the process for PC chair election asap and ensure the transition. Please respond and kick-off that process.</div><div><br></div><div>I also wanted to flag that we have 5 public comments and still missing volunteers <a href="https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Public+Comments+-+2020">https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Public+Comments+-+2020</a> (Raphael put his name for 3 of them but it is important to have more people joining). The deadlines are getting closer.</div><div><br></div><div>There is also the paper on operational design phase for which Bruna sent a google doc to start the drafting <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GJ-MmhxL2EkPuigXpKXWJ302WMEbc-cgai4dPszS-JI/edit">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GJ-MmhxL2EkPuigXpKXWJ302WMEbc-cgai4dPszS-JI/edit</a>. We have also to respond to Marteen letter regarding the timing for GNSO review. I also shared today in NCSG list the email regarding Terms of Reference for Community Representatives Group to nominate the IRP Standing Panel and our reps to the council should follow-up in council on that matter.</div><div><br></div><div>Regarding appointments, it is urgent to confirm representatives to SCBO , encouraging councillors to join and appointing SME if needed. The SCBO will already start working on council comments for the PTI budget. We have also to replace 2 representatives to the SSC as they are term limited.</div><div><br></div><div>Please schedule the next NCSG policy call for next month. We tried before to have a schedule for several months ahead so everyone has that in their calendars. Maryam can help with that. </div><div><br></div><div>Regarding long term, something I wanted to work on but didn't was the PC operating procedures, I have an old draft started previously I am happy to share if PC wants to continue the work on that. I was also supposed to work on chair role description but I didn't have a chance to do so. I might try to do that in the next few days.</div><div><br></div><div>With this, I wish you good luck and keep the good work :)</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div><br></div><div>Rafik</div><span id="gmail-:1d6" class="gmail-J-J5-Ji" style="display:inline-flex;min-height:28px;vertical-align:bottom;font-family:Roboto,RobotoDraft,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:22px"><div class="gmail-pG" id="gmail-:1d9" style="font-size:0px;padding:0px;width:20px;height:20px;display:inline-block;margin:0px 0px 0px 8px"> and</div></span><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">---------- Forwarded message ---------<br>De : <strong class="gmail_sendername" dir="auto">Rafik Dammak</strong> <span dir="auto"><<a href="mailto:rafik.dammak@gmail.com">rafik.dammak@gmail.com</a>></span><br>Date: mar. 13 oct. 2020 à 08:03<br>Subject: Election of next NCSG PC chair<br>To: ncsg-pc <<a href="mailto:ncsg-pc@lists.ncsg.is">ncsg-pc@lists.ncsg.is</a>><br></div><br><br><div dir="ltr">hi all,<div><br></div><div>my term in council and so in NCSG PC will end next week Wednesday at the end of GNSO council meeting. I am sending this to suggest that PC start planning for the selection of NCSG PC chair (and for vice-chair in same time or later). I believe that at least new councillors are already in the list. Constituencies might appoint or confirm later their representatives to PC but we already had the representatives appointed this year.</div><div><br></div><div>I am suggesting to start soon since there will be already several tasks for PC to work on such appointments to SCBO, SSC among others things in addition to ongoing public comments to be reviewed before their deadlines for endorsement. </div><div><br></div><div>We had a proposal of a process we followed last time that can be reused for the purpose. In terms of organization, I can suggest that incoming NCSG chair and ongoing vice-chair can work together to organize the election.</div><div><br></div><div>From last time election</div><div><div><div><i>1- Nomination period: from 17th to 24th April</i></div><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div><i>Nomination and self-nomination are both permitted from and within <span>PC</span> members (<span>NCSG</span> councillors, <span>NCSG</span> <span>Chair</span>, representatives from NCUC and NPOC to <span>PC</span>), for one year term for <span>PC</span> <span>chair</span> position.</i></div><div><i>The nominee should accept the nomination and send a short SOI by the 24th April.</i></div></blockquote><div><i>2- <span>Election</span> : from 27th April to 1st May</i></div><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div><i>all <span>PC</span> members should vote. the GNSO support staff will act as the <span>election</span> officer.
