[NCSG-PC] GNSO SSC - Naveed and Raymond

[Stephanie E Perrin]

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.

We must be dying if we cannot find new reps for this committee.

cheers Steph
