Could it be a good compromise for the Alternate's issue ?
Please pay atention to the point G.
==================================
F. (WITHOUT CHANGES) ** Alternates
While it is anticipated that Names Council representatives will manage the
many tasks of Names Council representation, Constituency management and DNSO
working group participation, it is also recognized that participation in the
many international meetings, international conference calls, and other Names
Council duties may from time to time require a sharing of time and costs with
an Alternate.
Each person running for Names Council representative may choose an alternate
with whom to run. The alternate candidate must be affiliated with an
organization that is a member of the NCDNHC, and have the approval of that
organization to run. Further, the alternate must be a citizen of the same
geographic region as the Names Council candidate. The names of the two
individuals shall be listed together on the voting ballot. A Names Council
candidate need not run with an alternate.
The Alternate shall work closely with the Names Council representative to
participate and vote as he/she would have done. The Alternate shall keep the
Names Council representative fully informed of his/her actions when
participating in Names Council activities. ***
G. (CHANGES BETWEEN BRACKETS) ** Resignation or Withdrawal **
1. Of a Names Council Representative
Should a Names Council representative withdraw, resign or otherwise
relinquish his/her position prior to the end of his/her term (AND SHE/HE
HAS AN ALTERNATE, THE ALTERNATE OF THE NAMES COUNCIL REPRESENTATIVE SHOULD
SUCH A PERSON EXIST, SHALL COMPLETE THE TERM).
Should the Names Council representative resign without an alternate (THE
ADMINISTRATIVE COMMITTEE MEMBER WHO WAS THE PERSON WITH THE FOURTH HIGHEST
NUMBER OF VOTES FROM A DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHIC REGION THAN THE 3 NAMES COUNCIL
REPRESENTATIVES SHALL SERVE OUT THE REMAINDER OF THE TERM)
2. Of an Administrative Committee member
Should an Administrative Committee member (who is not also a Names Council
representative) withdraw, resign or otherwise relinquish his/her position
prior to the end of his/her term, the Geographic region of the Administrative
Committee member shall be asked to hold new elections for this position,
provided the remaining time of the term consists of six or more months.
Should the remaining time of the term consist of less than six months, the
alternate of the Administrative Committee representative, should such a
person exist, shall complete the term.
Should the Administrative Committee member resign without an alternate and
with less than six months remaining in his/her term, the Administrative
Committee shall solicit input from the Constituency members of the Geographic
region of the Administrative Committee member and appoint a person from the
Region to serve out the term.
3. Of an Alternate
Should an alternate to a Names Council Representative withdraw, resign or
otherwise relinquish his/her position prior to the end of his/her term,
(THIS POSITION WILL NOT BE FULLFILLED UNTIL THE NEXT ELECTION)
(THE ADMINISTRATIVE COMMITTEE MEMBER WHO WERE THE PERSONS WITH THE FOURTH
AND FIFTH HIGHEST NUMBER OF VOTES FROM A DIFFERENT GEOGRAPHIC REGION THAN
THE 3 NAMES COUNCIL REPRESENTATIVES SHALL SERVE AS THE ALTERNATES OF THE
NAMES COUNCIL WITHOUT AN SPECIFIC ALTERNATE EACH TIME THAT IT COULD BE
NECESSARY FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE ADCOM)
