[council] REMINDER: GAC / GNSO: Consultation Group (CG) Survey now live!

[Terri Agnew <terri.agnew@xxxxxxxxx>]

**Last day to provide input.

Dear All,

The Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC) and the Generic Names Supporting 
Organization (GNSO) jointly established a consultation group (CG) to explore 
ways for the GAC to engage early in the GNSO Policy Development Process (PDP) 
and to improve overall cooperation between the two bodies. The work of the CG 
is divided into two work streams, the first concentrating on Mechanisms for day 
to day co-operation and the second on the options for GAC engagement in the 
GNSO policy development process (PDP). Since the ICANN meeting in Dublin, the 
CG has worked on the review of the GNSO Liaison to the GAC pilot project, the 
review of the Quick Look Mechanism which was introduced as a pilot to 
facilitate GAC input in the early stages of the PDP and explored additional 
opportunities for early engagement as part of the other stages of the PDP. In 
order to move forward on this latter part, the opportunities for early 
engagement of the GAC in GNSO Policy Development, the CG has developed this 
survey to obtain your input on the experiences to date with the Quick Look 
Mechanism as well as additional suggestions and ideas for opportunities for 
early engagement in the other phases of the PDP.

Please provide your input by 6 June 2016 at the latest by completing the survey 
at https://s.zoomerang.com/r/GACGNSOCGSurvey.

Thank you.

Kind regards,

SOAC Support (GNSO)
