Dear GNSO Councilors,

 

Please see the attached Discussion Paper for your consideration and discussion 
during the GNSO Council meeting on 30 June at ICANN 56 in Helsinki.

 

As you may recall, In September 2015, the Independent Examiner that had been 
appointed to conduct the GNSO organizational review published its Final Report. 
At its meeting in April 2016, the GNSO Council adopted, with one modification, 
the proposed Feasibility and Prioritization Analysis of the Independent 
Examiner’s recommendations that was prepared by the GNSO Working Party (see 
http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#201604). The Working Party had 
been formed to liaise between the GNSO, the Board’s Organizational 
Effectiveness Committee (OEC) and the Independent Examiner. The OEC considered 
the Final Report and the GNSO’s modified Feasibility and Prioritization 
Analysis at its meeting in May 2016, and is expected to recommend action by the 
Board on the GNSO organizational review in Helsinki.

 

To prepare for implementation of the recommendations that are expected to be 
adopted by the ICANN Board, ICANN staff was requested to prepare a Discussion 
Paper for the GNSO. The discussion paper is intended to facilitate the 
Council’s discussion and subsequent agreement on a possible mechanism to 
develop and execute the implementation plan.

 

The Discussion Paper is expected to be on the Council’s meeting agenda in 
Helsinki on Thursday, 30 June.  The primary recommendation in this Discussion 
Paper is for this mechanism to be in the form of a Working Group and that 
following further Council discussion (including in Helsinki) the Council may be 
in a position to vote and adopt the charter for this Working Group (or other 
mechanism the Council may decide on) at its July meeting (assuming the Board 
adopts the OEC recommendations in Helsinki).

 

Kind regards,

Julie

 

Julie Hedlund, Policy Director
