On 30 June 2016, the GNSO Council created a Drafting Team (DT) to work with

ICANN Bylaws, and prepare an implementation plan to address any needed changes
by 30 September
(https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20160630-2)[gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gnso.icann.org_en_council_resolutions-2320160630-2D2-2529&d=DgMFAw&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=U4IBJYYYko8geLjSlTyOXbvtmoVER-_lK-PAQ64rKHs&m=-y8r7d6ely2-auB71o09HkFgPZ8rQYMg1u-6Fisv8RY&s=nlpNf0f4WasXPnr1kqv8mJsHTDYbhmHr_L1TGrWRFcg&e=>.

Administration. At its meeting on 13 October, the Council reviewed the DT’s
report and recommendations (Final Report:

Item 5. COUNCIL VOTE – GNSO Council Response to the Board on gTLD Policy
Matters related to the GAC Communique from Hyderabad (20 minutes)
Beginning in July 2015, the GNSO Council has reviewed each GAC Communiqué for
issues relating to gTLD policy, with a view toward providing feedback to the
ICANN Board as well as the broader community concerning past, present or future
GNSO policy activities concerning advice provided by the GAC. In the GAC
Communique from ICANN57 in Hyderabad, the GAC had provided specific advice
regarding protections in the domain name system for International Governmental
Organization (IGO) names and acronyms as well as identifiers associated with
the international Red Cross movement and its National Societies
(https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/gac-to-icann-08nov16-en.pdf)[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_system_files_correspondence_gac-2Dto-2Dicann-2D08nov16-2Den.pdf-29&d=DgMFAw&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=U4IBJYYYko8geLjSlTyOXbvtmoVER-_lK-PAQ64rKHs&m=-y8r7d6ely2-auB71o09HkFgPZ8rQYMg1u-6Fisv8RY&s=mFzheCtf9IBwsuYUAtgU96EyKBKNVArCndR3Ok2ppVE&e=>.
Also at ICANN57, the ICANN Board had suggested that a facilitated discussion
between the GAC and the GNSO on remaining inconsistencies between GAC advice
and GNSO policy recommendations on these matters be considered as a possible
path forward
(http://schd.ws/hosted_files/icann572016/60/I57%20HYD_Tue08Nov2016-Public%20Forum%202-en.pdf)[schd.ws]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__schd.ws_hosted-5Ffiles_icann572016_60_I57-2520HYD-5FTue08Nov2016-2DPublic-2520Forum-25202-2Den.pdf-29&d=DgMFAw&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=U4IBJYYYko8geLjSlTyOXbvtmoVER-_lK-PAQ64rKHs&m=-y8r7d6ely2-auB71o09HkFgPZ8rQYMg1u-6Fisv8RY&s=gZAtGNidxQ7zKOxlxeBcxRX1fkdx79cD7BP37JWkX6o&e=>.
A draft response [INSERT LINK] to the GAC’s Communique from ICANN57 in
Hyderabad was circulated to the GNSO Council on [INSERT DATE]. Here the Council
will consider whether or not to approve a response to the Board, and confirm
its intended next steps with regard to reconciling its policy recommendations
with GAC advice on the topic of Red Cross and IGO protections.

VOTE – Approval of Letter to the ICANN Board concerning Implementation Issues
with Part C of the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (10 minutes)
Part C of ICANN’s Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP), aimed at combatting
domain name theft, is scheduled to come into effect on 1 December 2016
(https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/transfer-policy-2016-06-01-en)[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resources_pages_transfer-2Dpolicy-2D2016-2D06-2D01-2Den-29&d=DgMFAw&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=U4IBJYYYko8geLjSlTyOXbvtmoVER-_lK-PAQ64rKHs&m=-y8r7d6ely2-auB71o09HkFgPZ8rQYMg1u-6Fisv8RY&s=0CI4SN9VTlI4coanEdMPFs4jfj7-eSRVaSm2Gkfd0no&e=>.
On 31 October 2016, the Registrar Stakeholder Group identified and raised a
critical issue concerning the implementation of IRTP Part C in relation to the
provision of privacy and proxy services
(https://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/msg19339.html)[gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gnso.icann.org_mailing-2Dlists_archives_council_msg19339.html-29&d=DgMFAw&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=U4IBJYYYko8geLjSlTyOXbvtmoVER-_lK-PAQ64rKHs&m=-y8r7d6ely2-auB71o09HkFgPZ8rQYMg1u-6Fisv8RY&s=3nI-aswx9lbyAP35FYEs6-KNKBZvr2yFspqBKuTnriA&e=>.
At ICANN57 in Hyderabad, the GNSO Council discussed the issue with ICANN’s
Global Domains Division staff in charge of policy implementation, and it was
suggested that the most appropriate course of action would be to to request
that the ICANN Board direct staff to remove the privacy/proxy services aspect
from the IRTP and place it for evaluation and recommendation by the newly
formed Privacy Proxy Services Accreditation Issues Implementation Review Team.
A draft letter to the Board was circulated to the Council on 21 November.

Item 7. COUNCIL VOTE – Adoption of Proposed Implementation Plan for
Recommendations relating to the 2014 GNSO Review (10 minutes)
Along with the ICANN Board’s adoption in June 2016 of certain recommendations
from the 2014 GNSO Review, the GNSO Council requested that ICANN policy staff
prepare a discussion paper outlining the possible options for implementation,
taking into account past implementation of previous GNSO Reviews as well as
existing mechanisms. At ICANN56 in Helsinki in June 2016, the GNSO Council
discussed the options outlined in the staff discussion paper

At ICANN57 in Hyderabad, SO/AC leaders (including the chairs of several GNSO
Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies) met with ICANN staff to discuss the
selection process for appointments to the forthcoming Security, Stability &
Resiliency (SSR) Review Team. It was agreed that selection of the final slate
of Review Team members should be a collective effort by all SO/AC leaders, and
that each SO/AC would develop its own internal guidelines for selecting its
representatives for consideration (up to a maximum of 3 per SO/AC). The group
also discussed how independent experts should be appointed to the Review Team.
