<div dir="ltr">Thank you Stephanie. I agree and it is my personal opinion too that there is an inherent conflict of interest due to the tensions we've been having with ALAC. But since there is no explicit guidance in the charter, I wanted a collective decision by the PC on this.

<p>Yes I think there is a problem. I understand that there is
nothing in the Charter that precludes dual representation.
However, we are in tension with ALAC in various areas, notably in
their approach to the EPDP and the ACs' role in policy
development. This is an appointments committee....are ALAC
representatives going to object to business members who are
prominent in ALAC being chosen for roles? seems like a conflict of
interest to me, one has to choose an allegiance and stick to it.
I am an ALAC NA member, but I do nothing with ALAC except try to
promote better relationships with them, as long as I am performing
in an NCSG role. I think this is the appropriate response,
obviously, but I would like to hear someone defend these
reappointments on conflict of interest principles.</p>
<p>We must be dying if we cannot find new reps for this committee.</p>
<p>cheers Steph<br>

<div>Dear PC,</div>

<div>As you know, the GNSO Standing Selection Committee (SSC) is
due for refresh as they do annually after the AGM. <b>Naveed
Bin Rais</b> and <b>Raymond Mamattah</b>, two of our
current representatives to the SSC, both of whom have been
selected by the NomCom to serve as ALAC members representing
their regions at the end of ICANN72 are also both eligible to
serve a second term as NCSG appointed members to the GNSO SSC
and are willing to.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My question to you is, do you think their situation poses
any conflict of interest to NCSG, noting that I can't recall
any specific provision in our charter which prevents them from
serving in both roles. <br>
</div>

</div>
<div>Please let me know.<br>
