Dear Community Members
The Secretariat would like to thank Policy SIG Co-Chair, Masato
Yamanishi, for assuming the role of Acting Chair of the APNIC Policy SIG
following the resignation and Andy Linton.
We would also like to thank him for Chairing the APNIC 38 Open Policy
Meeting.
Masato Yamanishi was re-elected as Co-Chair at that meeting for a
further two year term.
According to the SIG Guidelines there will be an election for the
position of Chair of the APNIC Policy SIG as the first Agenda item at
the SIG meeting during APNIC 39 at APRICOT in Fukuoka, Japan.
The Secretariat will make a Call for Nominations next week. The
nomination period will be from 4 February 2015 until 4 March 2015 (one
month as required by the SIG Guidelines).
The APNIC SIG Guidelines say that, "More than one Co-Chair may be
appointed, at the discretion of the Chair. The decision to hold an
election for more than one Co-Chair is also at the Chair's discretion."
Accordingly, the Secretariat shall issue a Call for Nominations for both
Chair and Co-Chair positions, so that the newly elected Chair can chose
to hold an election for a second Co-Chair.
Kind regards,
Adam
