I quote you now from a transcript of the Congress meeting on the afternoon of 3 June, 2002 immediately prior to the vote being taken.
"Australia (Don McKnight). If I may Mr President, one request for information. If we vote in support of this proposal, are we voting in support of this proposal as written, or are we voting in support of the general proposal to investigate a much more detailed and comprehensive judging system?
(President) Cinquanta. No! No. No. You are not voting for the proposal word by word. You are voting in favour of the concept, let's say, of the criteria, of the project, not on the, on the comma on the (inaudible). This I said many times. It is not a rule. This is not a rule. Is a project. Is an itinerary. Nothing else. I do not know what you are thinking about.
So now I call for a vote...."
Given that the proposal was not for a rule then I suggest that the text of the proposal which appears in the General Regulations 2002 as Rule 121 is there illegally and that the whole tenor of the Press Release implies a false premise on which is based its conclusion that the "ISU has the possibility to implement" ( not simply test in parallel with the existing judging system) "the New Judging System at mayor [sic] ISU Events".
