We do not have such a procedure, and members voted against a resolution that would have given them that power. A Special Resolution was proposed at the AFRINIC SGMM in November 2016, see SR16 in <https://afrinic.net/images/2.0-Special_Resolutions_SR1_to_SR20.pdf>. The resolution failed with only 73% YES votes, while 75% would have been needed for it to pass. I am not sure what formalities are needed between such a special resolution being passed in an AGMM and the change taking effect.
