["Neuman, Jeff" <Jeff.Neuman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

All,

Given the substantive comments that we received to the Final PDP-WT Report, I 
would like to make the following motion which refers to the comments back to 
the PDP-WT for consideration.  Please let me know if you have any comments.

Thanks.


Motion regarding Public Comments on the Policy Development Process Work Team 
Final Report

WHEREAS, in October 2008, the GNSO Council established a framework (see GNSO 
Council Improvement Implementation Plan;
(http://www.icann.org/en/topics/gnso-improvements/gnso-improvements-implementation-plan-16oct08.pdf)
 for implementing the various GNSO Improvements identified and approved by the 
ICANN Board of Directors on 26 June 2008
(http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-26jun08.htm#_Toc76113182)
(http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-26jun08.htm);

WHEREAS, that framework included the formation, in January 2009, of two 
Steering Committees, the Operations Steering Committee (OSC) and the Policy 
Process Steering Committee (PPSC), to charter and coordinate the efforts of 
five community work teams in developing specific recommendations to implement 
the improvements;

WHEREAS, the PPSC established two work teams, including the Policy Development 
Process Work Team (PDP-WT), which was chartered to develop a new policy 
development process that incorporates a working group approach and makes it 
more effective and responsive to ICANN's policy development needs;

WHEREAS, the GNSO Council decided to terminate the PPSC on 28 April 2011 and 
instructed the PDP-WT to deliver its Final Report directly to the GNSO Council;

WHEREAS, the PDP-WT submitted its Final Report 
(http://gnso.icann.org/issues/pdp-wt-final-report-final-31may11-en.pdf) on 1 
June 2011 to the GNSO Council;

WHEREAS the GNSO Council opened a 30-day public comment period on the Final 
Report (see 
http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-2-09jun11-en.htm);

WHEREAS ICANN Staff produced a Summary and Analysis document of the comments 
received and posted it at [include link]

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT:

RESOLVED, the GNSO Council directs the PDP-WT to review the Summary and 
Analysis document as well as the comments and make any changes to the PDP-WT 
Final Report as deemed appropriate. The PDP-WT should submit the updated 
version of the Final Report to the GNSO Council as soon as possible, preferably 
in time for consideration at its next meeting on 8 September.
