The SRPC member or clerk requested to be removed may propose its opinions vis-a-vis the motion.In the case that an SRPC member’s recusal is motioned, the adjudication shall stay before the Protection Committee’s grant or dismissal of the motion. Nonetheless, provided that there is an emergency situation the necessary actions shall be taken accordingly.The SRPC members are not allowed to take part in the procedure of granting or dismissing the motion for recusal.In the case where the SRPC member or clerk fails to recuse itself in the circumstances prescribed in the preceding paragraph and is not requested to be recused by the petitioner or re-appellant, the Protection Committee shall order the recusal of such member or clerk ex officio.
