If the conditions are not met by the 'subsequent recirculation ballot', the 'conditional approval' terminates.’ (See ‘802 Chair's interpretation of 'substantially complete' as used in conditional approval procedure 14’, http://www.ieee802.org/secmail/msg13174.html). [2] One of the conditions, should conditional approve be granted, is that the recirculation ballot and resolution should occur in accordance with the schedule presented at the time of conditional approval. Hence if two recirculations are expected include them, as needing only one is fine. Version 2.1 Request for conditional approval Page 5
