[rpd] Re: [members-discuss] Board Chair and Vice Chair

[serge ilunga]

Congratulations Chair and Vice chair.

I would like to share with members some facts.

I've observed that both chairman and vice chairman's terms expire at same
time that is next AGM in June 2016

Though it may be unlikely that if none get reelected, common sense, good
practice and Business Continuity would suggest different way where at least
one of the two is on seat during  beyond June 2016.

This also means that the chairs will have oversight of their own election
raising more accountability challenges.

In the recent discussion about how previous chair and vice got swapped
during AFRINIC 21 ( November 2014), one of the reasons cited was for smooth
transition.

It now appears that this has not been followed and openining a door to not
following established principles .


This might be a good reason to get the Governance Committee established to
advise on such cases.

Kind Regards.
