Subject: [Aso-chairs] PLEASE READ/RESPOND: Delegate to Join the 2023 Nominating Committee - RESPONSE DEADLINE - TUESDAY, 31 MAY 2022

Dear Kevin,

This is an official request for the Address Supporting Organization (ASO) Address Council to select a delegate to join the 2023 Nominating Committee. 

Please acknowledge receipt of this message and send the name of the ASO delegate no later than 23:59 UTC on Tuesday, 31 May 2022 to NomCom Operations Staff at nomcom-ops-team@icann.org.

Specific criteria and requirements regarding the NomCom composition and NomCom delegates are outlined in the ICANN Bylaws in Article 8.  

Attached is the Job Description for NomCom Delegates. Additionally, please note the following as you select and appoint your delegate to the 2023 NomCom:

• Ineligibility for Service – Current or future ICANN employees or paid ICANN consultants (including Ombudsman) are excluded from consideration for eligibility as described in Article 8, Section 8.9 of ICANN’s Bylaws.
• The ICANN community is diverse and the composition of the NomCom should reflect this in order to fulfill its mission.   
• NomCom delegates should have a high-level network of contacts essential to candidate recruitment.
• The delegate should be able to join monthly teleconferences. Note that the NomCom's workload will increase significantly during the candidate assessment process. Conference calls are held more frequently during this time as well (typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to three hours).
• All NomCom delegates should have the ability to travel to and participate in ICANN Public meetings and NomCom meetings when requested (travel and hotel accommodations will be provided for all approved meetings). If travel is restricted, then NomCom delegates will meet virtually.

The 2023 NomCom will invite applicants for the following positions:

• Two members of the ICANN Board of Directors.
• One member of the PTI Board of Directors.
• Three regional representatives to the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) – one each representing the Africa region, Asia, Australia, and Pacific Islands region, and Latin America and Caribbean region.
• Two members of the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council – one representing the Contracted Parties House and one representing the Non-Contracted Parties House.
• One member of the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) Council.

Additional information about the work of the NomCom is found here. 

We look forward to welcoming your selected delegate to the 2023 Nominating Committee.  Thank you and please let us know if you have any questions.  

Best Regards,

Nominating Committee Operations Support
