4. ALS Issues - Alan Greenberg

a. ALS certification and decertification

i. Voting Privacy Proposal: All votes open, except:

• • No advice received from RALO for certifications; or
  • Any ALAC Member requests that the vote be secret.

ii. Review of voting process related to ALS Certification

Where regional advice has been given, if any member of the ALAC requests a vote on a given applicant to be held, the question to be put shall be: "Shall the advice of the region in respect of accreditation of [name of applicant] be overturned?". The available responses to the question shall be: ‘YES', ‘NO', and ‘ABSTAIN' where only one answer may be chosen. If no member of the ALAC requests a vote to be held on such an application within a number of days after the regional advice has been given (the number of days to be as determined by the ALAC from time to time), the applicant shall be certified as an At-Large Structure by unanimous consent upon the expiry of the number of days above-referenced.

b. ALS criteria and expectations

Current - http://tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-AdjDoc4-2013-07, page 1

Proposal: create an ad hoc review group to consult with RALOs and propose a replacement set of criteria and expectations.

• • Work ongoing in RALOs, but it is an ALAC responsibility to set MINIMUM standards
  • Metrics group has started some of this, and work will return to them once we set minimum expectations

5. CCWG Selection - Next Steps - Alan Greenberg

• • Co-chair selection: Proposal: Request that Selection Committee add this to their recommendations to be ratified by ALAC
  • Regional representation: What if Selection Committee does not have a candidate to propose for each region?
