[council] PDP-Feb06 - ToR 3

["Bruce Tonkin" <Bruce.Tonkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

Below are the changes discussed to the ToR 3 on price controls that
clarifies that we are talking about the policy of whether to have some
form of price control, and how it would be applied - rather than a
discussion of specific pricing.

3. Policy for Price controls for registry services 

3a. Examine in what ways price controls contribute to ICANN's core
mission and values, especially the promotion of competition and the net
effects on end users.

3b. While not discussing the prices of registry services, examine what
conditions might justify price controls policy for particular
registries.

3c. Examine objective measures (cost calculation method, cost elements,
reasonable profit margin) for approving an application for a price
increase when price control is applied. 

3d. In view of the findings, determine if registry agreements should
prescribe or limit the prices for registry services.

Regards,
Bruce Tonkin
