Dear Councillors,

I would like to move the following motion for the next meeting:

"Motion to create a drafting team to develop the charters for two Working 
Groups on the Creation of non-binding Best Practices to help Registrars and 
Registries address the Abusive Registrations of Domain Names
 
Whereas, following the recommendation of the Registration Abuse Policies 
Working Group, the GNSO Council requested a discussion paper on the creation of 
non-binding best practices to help registrars and registries address the 
abusive registrations of domain names in accordance with the Registration Abuse 
Policies Working Group Final Report;
 
Whereas, ICANN Staff submitted the discussion paper to the GNSO Council on 28 
September 2011 (see 
http://gnso.icann.org/issues/rap/discussion-paper-rap-best-practices-28sep11-en.pdf);
 
Whereas the GNSO Council discussed the discussion paper at its working session 
at the ICANN meeting in Dakar and a public workshop was organized;
 
Whereas the GNSO Council identified the issue as a priority topic at its wrap 
up session at the ICANN meeting in Dakar;
 
Whereas, the discussion paper recommended the creation of two Working Groups, 
namely one GNSO Working Group to establish the framework for best practices and 
one Cross-Community Technical Group to propose candidate best practices to 
address the abusive registration of domain names.
 
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT:
 
Resolved, that the GNSO Council hereby approves the formation of a GNSO 
drafting team which will be responsible for developing the Charters for the two 
Working Groups to address the creation of non-binding best practices to help 
registrars and registries address the Abusive Registrations of Domain Names as 
identified above;
 
Resolved, the drafting team will consider the discussion paper prepared by 
ICANN Staff well as the discussions of the GNSO Council on the discussion paper 
and the public workshops on this topic as part of its deliberations and 
development of the Charters;
 
Resolved further, that [Name] shall serve as the GNSO Council Liaison for this
