Proposed new section 13. E-mail voting v3
DNSO
13.1 The DNSO secretariat will typically act as returning officer for an
e-mail vote. All votes using the DNSO secretariat voting software have resource
implications. Any vote of the NC or General Assembly (GA) undertaken by
the DNSO secretariat must be requested by the Names Council chair. The NC
chair will not ordinarily refuse a request for a vote from the chair of
the GA for a GA vote, so long as there is no cost implication from overtime
or other costs above that expected in the annual DNSO secretariat budget.
I would like to propose that there be somemeansby which a super-majority
of the NC (2/3?, 3/4?) may compell a vote. This prevents too much power
from residing with the chair.
