Perhaps NCSG should make an official public statement to express our concern regarding the mis-handling of this issue by the GNSO Council (and possibly staff due to their shepherding of the motion through regardless of proper process)?  I think we need to draw attention to these problems where councilors are creating such privileges for their own clients with their council votes and also resubmitting a rejected motion without dealing with the conflict of interest causing the problem in the first place.

Thanks,

Robin

Thanks all for the comments. The matter was referred to the SCI today,

following the Council meeting.

It may have been referred to the SCI,

but that is a case too late.

the motion that both staff and the chair wanted passed was rammed through.

in my opinion this was illegitimate.

and should have waited on the recommendation of the SCI.
