Ballot overview

  • Ballot 60, Verification Requirements for Parent Subsidiary, proposed adding Section 10.11.3 to the Baseline Requirements.
  • The ballot page states Quorum not met.
  • The motion text says the change would take effect immediately if adopted.

Proposed requirement

  • When a CA verifies an Applicant using information of the Applicant’s Parent, Subsidiary, or Affiliate under sections 10.4.1, 10.4.2, 10.5.1, or 10.6.2, the CA must verify the Applicant’s relationship to that Parent, Subsidiary, or Affiliate.
  • The motion lists acceptable verification methods:
    • QIIS or QGIS identifying the relationship
    • Independent Confirmation from the Parent, Subsidiary, or Affiliate
    • Contract between the CA and the Parent, Subsidiary, or Affiliate, with the stated signer and authority checks
    • Verified Legal Opinion
    • Verified Accountant Letter
    • Properly authenticated corporate resolution for a Subsidiary, with the stated certification and authority checks

Ballot timing stated on the page

  • The ballot review period comes into effect at 2100 UTC on 15 Apr 2011 and closes at 2100 UTC on 22 Apr 2011.
  • Unless withdrawn during review, the voting period would start immediately afterward and close at 2100 UTC on 29 Apr 2011.

Outcome

  • The ballot page explicitly says Quorum not met, so the ballot did not become normative.
