Summary This proposal seeks to modify LACNIC's Policy Development Process (PDP), extending the discussion period required for presenting a proposal at the Forum from one week to three weeks.

Summary This proposal seeks to extend the time a proposal requires before it can be presented at the Forum by two weeks. These two weeks would be added to the maximum time established for LACNIC to publish a proposal. It also seeks to prioritize new proposals to be discussed at the Public Forum and allow the Chairs to decide on the need to submit new versions of proposals that have already been previously presented in the Forum.

In addition, new versions of existing proposals often do not involve significant changes that merit their presentation during the forum and have the potential to reach consensus on the discussion list, thus reducing the time required for a proposal to achieve consensus. This would allow more time to discuss new proposals.
