Discussion
The Council discussed the format and nature of its response to the CCWG-Accountability's Third Draft Proposal. Although there were several recommendations that met with general support broadly across the GNSO's Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies, there were also a few recommendations where there were differing views amongst some SG/Cs.
The Council had formed a Sub Team that prepared a document summarizing the overall GNSO position in relation to each of the CCWG's recommendations, and that document noted divergences amongst the SG/Cs as well as commonalities and certain areas where the GNSO believed modifications or conditions were necessary.
The GNSO Chair will prepare a letter addressed to the CCWG co-chairs explaining the GNSO response as well as an update of the Sub Team document for the Council's review before the next Council meeting on 21 January 2016.
Please see the transcript for the complete discussion that took place.
