                    Further to its communique issued on 5 August 2020,
                    AFRINIC wishes to inform its community that
                    following its announcement regarding the holding of
                    the Policy Development Working
                    Group (“PDWG”) Co-Chair and NRO ASO-AC elections for
                    the year 2020, it has considered all responses
                    obtained in respect thereof.<br />
                    <br />
                    Consequently, AFRINIC considers it appropriate to
                    clarify, for the benefits of its community, the
                    following:<br />
                    <br />
                    (a)   That the Public Policy Meeting (“PPM”) is
                    convened by the AFRINIC Board of Directors pursuant
                    to the provisions of articles 11.2 and 11.3 of the

                      is wrong, and should be corrected. A RIR is only

                      to the community to decide how this is done and
                      what the community wants to be done by the RIR.
                      The community can agree that the elections are
                      handled by the AFRINIC board and that the board
                      can delegate into a committee. That’s fine and I
