[ga] Request to GA Chair for Ballot

["Joanna Lane" <jo-uk@rcn.com>]

Revisiting the wording of the resolution itself, I would like to make an
amendment as follows:- .

IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED by the General Assembly in their capacity as managers
of the 2001 election process to select a nominee for appointment by the NC
to the positions of Chair and Alternate Chair of the GA  IN ACCORDANCE WITH
ITS OWN POLICY AND to dismiss the previous Rules applied to the 1999
election.

Regards,
Joanna
