Difficulties have arisen due to too many candidates being listed for a single position and voting eligibility irregularities related to membership. Each of the three proposed amendments have been approved by a majority vote of the ICGI Executive Steering Committee. Members of ICGI are asked to vote one of the three options (Agree/Against/Abstain) for each amendment.
