[rpd] Fwd: Eligibility Criteria for PDWG chairs

Hi Seun,



That’s part of the problem.



Even if only one of the co-chairs is an author, it may happen that in fact, both have agreed about that policy proposal … it doesn’t matter if the proposal was submitted “before” or “after” being elected/nominated.



It is a clear path to manipulation and consequencly appeals *even in the case the co-chairs are acting objectively, neutraly and in good faith*.



If you look into the PDP, there is *nothing* that allows a co-chair to recusse himself, or even more, authors of a policy proposal to recuse co-chairs. So in fact, that means that the co-chair could perfectly *not selfrecuse* and it will be valid according to the PDP.



If instead of 2 co-chairs we have 4, 5, 6, etc., the chances that this happens are lower, but having only 2 co-chairs, we shouldn't allow it.



Regards,

Jordi

There is something about G and it will be good to clarify. While a Co-Chair is not expected to propose a policy, if such happens the Co-Chair who has proposed the policy certainly has to recuse himself for conflict of interest.



However the first part of the question here is about nomination and whether a current author of a policy can be nominated for Co-Chair position. While the second part is what happens if the author eventually becomes the Co-Chair. I believe the second part is easier as such author will recuse himself from Chairing such policy discussion. Hopefully both Co-Chairs will not be authors of same policy :-)



The first part of the question will then be what the rpd need to agree on.... normally being author of a current policy should not be a barrier to nomination.

I would amend "G" to read;



G. A PDWG must agree to recuse oneself if they are author or co-author of any of the policy proposals currently under discussion.

Cheers,

McTim
