Yes, they can, most easily by subtracting one date from the other, getting a number of days, and comparing that to a number of days representing "13 months". All this proposal is, is to set that figure to a figure which is at least 13 months in all possible scenarios, i.e. 398. > It seems easy to do that, and much > easier for humans to evaluate than 398 days. Like I said, specify it as "398 days (just over 13 months)". There is then a human way and a computer way of evaluating it, and everyone's happy. But anyway, how it's specified will be up to the motion drafter, and we can bikeshed it then.
