Public Consultation on Proposed Bylaw Amendments to At-large Voting Director

On July 1st, 2010, ICANN opened a public consultation on Proposed Bylaw Amendments to add a Voting Director from the At-Large Community to the ICANN Board. The proposed amendments are based on the Board resolution from the Special Board Meeting on August 27th, 2009, to add one voting director from the At-Large Community to the ICANN Board of Directors and removing the present At-Large Advisory Committee Liaison to the ICANN Board. (see Minutes of Special Board Meeting)

The relevant portion of the proposed Bylaws revisions, in redline for ease of review, can be found at http://www.icann.org/en/general/proposed-bylaws-revision-at-large-director-01jul10-en.pdf (PDF, 120 KB).

At-Large Community Comment on Proposed Bylaw Amendments

Tijani Ben Jemaa on behalf of the African Regional At-Large Organization
*Comment of the African Regional At-Large Organization (AFRALO) about the
ICANN Bylaw amendment related to the selection by At-Large of a voting
director on the Board*

Even if we understand very well the necessary synchronisation of the term of
the Board Director selected by At-Large with those of the other Board
Directors selected by the SOs, we consider a first term of 6 months not
enough for him to enter into the process and to be familiar with the board
work.

In stead of the transitional period of 6 months, we propose a transitional
period of 42 months (3 years and a half) that will satisfy the requirement
of having a synchronous term with those of the SOs Directors, and be a
reasonable period for a Board Director for the best efficiency.

We propose the following modification to the proposed text:

g. The regular term of Seat 15 shall begin on the day six months after the
conclusion of ICANN’s annual meeting in 2010 and each ICANN annual meeting
every third year after 2010.

(Note: to avoid that Seat 15 remains vacant prior to the regular term, the
first (transitional) term of Seat 15 shall begin at the conclusion of the
ICANN annual meeting in 2010 and ends on the day six months after the
conclusion of ICANN annual meeting in 2013. Until the conclusion of the
ICANN annual meeting in 2010, there will be a non-voting Liaison appointed
by the At Large Advisory Committee who shall participate as specified at
Sections 9(3) and 9(5) of this Article.) | Tijani Ben Jemaa au nom de l'organisation régionale d'At-Large pour l'Afrique
*Commentaire d’AFRALO sur l’amendement des statuts d’ICANN relatif à la
sélection par At-Large d’un Directeur au conseil d’administration avec droit
de vote*

Même si nous sommes conscients de la nécessité d’une synchronisation du
mandat du Directeur du Board sélectionné par At-Large avec ceux des autres
directeurs sélectionnés par les SOs, nous considérons qu’un premier mandat
de 6 mois ne peut être suffisant pour qu’un directeur entre dans le
processus et se familiarise avec le travail du conseil d’administration.

Plutôt qu’une période transitoire de 6 mois, nous proposons une période
transitoire de 42 mois (3 ans et demi) qui satisferait la nécessité d’avoir
un mandat synchronisé avec ceux des autres directeurs des SOs, et qui serait
une période raisonnable pour un Directeur du Board effectif et efficace.

Nous proposons la modification du texte proposé comme suit : (Voir à gauche,
