James,
It seems that a Study Group
could develop two PARs. If it's to be disbanded upon approval of "the
PAR", one could ask "Which PAR: the first or the second?" It's not
unreasonable to presume the second one.
More generally, 5.4 says
"after the Study Group recommendations have been accepted by the parent
body, the Study Group will be disbanded no later than the end of the
next plenary session." So if the Study Group has recommendations (other
than the first or only PAR) that are still awaiting acceptance by the
parent body, then this says it's not supposed to be disbanded between
plenaries.
So I still think there is at least a little ambiguity
in the P&P. IMHO.

It does say that earlier in the same subclause. Note that it is
only
specific about its charter and does not say that it cannot be dissolved
earlier. For example, the EC could vote to dissolve it prior to the
next plenary session. Or, in this case, the rules state that it is
dissolved upon approval of the PAR.
However, a motion from the EC can't override the rules in the
P&P, which
state it dissolves with approval of the PAR.
The EC is supposed to assign the PAR to a group, hence upon approval
of
the PAR, that group has the responsibility for that topic.
I don't see any ambiguity.
IMHO.

James,
That's a strong point. On the other hand, 5.4 says:
"A Study Group shall report its recommendations, shall have a
limited
lifetime, and is chartered plenary session-to-plenary session."
and EC Motion #40 (2015-07-17) says:
"To approve the extension of the IEEE 802 EC Privacy Recommendation
Study Group until the end of the November 2015 meeting."
so I think there is at least a little ambiguity.

I had an action item:
1) Gilb to determine when an 802 ECSG is disbanded per the 802
policies and procedures.
Based on the approved IEEE 802 LMSC Policies and Procedures:
1) The Privacy ECSG was disbanded upon approval of the PAR by the
IEEE-SA standards board.
2) With the disbanding of the ECSG, Juan Carlos is no longer a
member
of the EC.
Rationale:
In our approved P&P, Clause 5.4, page 14, first paragraph: Two
types
of Study Groups, Working Group Study Groups (WGSGs) and Executive
Committee Study Groups (ECSGs) are listed. Hence, when the term
"Study Group" is used the text without a modifier, it means either
type of group.
In Clause 5.4, final paragraph, it says "After the Study Group
recommendations have been accepted by the parent body, the Study
Group
will be disbanded no later than the end of the next plenary session.
A
Study Group is disbanded upon approval of the PAR by the IEEE-SA
Standards Board."
IMHO.
