> The 2010 Registration Abuse Policies Working Group (RAPWG) identified the an issue relating to Uniformity of Reporting which it described as “need for more uniformity in the mechanisms to initiate, track, and analyze policy-violation reports.”  The RAPWG recommended in its Final Report that “the GNSO and the larger ICANN community in general, create and support uniform [problem-] reporting [and report-tracking] processes.”
>
> The GNSO Council recommended the creation of an Issue Report<http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/uofr-final-31mar13-en.pdf> to further research metrics and reporting needs with the aim of improving the policy development process.  The report created by ICANN Staff outlined accomplishments regarding reporting and metrics by the Contractual Compliance function and it also reviewed other reporting sources that may be of relevance.
>
> The GNSO Council subsequently adopted a recommendation to form a non-PDP Working Group tasked with exploring opportunities for developing reporting and metrics processes and/or appropriate standardized methodologies that could better inform fact-based policy development and decision making.
>
> Here the Council vote on whether to approve the Charter of the Metrics and Reporting Working Group.
>
> 4.1 - Review the Motion

> Item 5: INPUT & DISCUSSION – Prospective improvements to the Policy Development Process (15 mins) The Council is committed to on-going enhancements to the methods of working of the Council and the work initiated and managed by the Council. The PDP process is a cornerstone of policy making within the GNSO and, as such, the work of the Council.  The PDP outcomes and associated processes are the subject of focus and attention both within the GNSO and the broader ICANN Community.
> The Council has previously discussed a paper prepared by ICANN staff<http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/pdp-improvements-22aug13-en.pdf> on potential improvements to the PDP process.  The discussion is now encapsulated in a table form which has been revised through various discussions at council meetings and on email lists.  The document now also includes reference to the related recommendations of the ATRT2.  Here the Council will aim to agree concrete next steps including the requirement to form a group to continue this work, particularly with a focus on items 3 & 5 in the table.

In order to be informed and effectively prepared for this work, we have begun to engage with the body that commissions such reviews (the structural improvements committee) through its chair, Ray Plazk.
>
> The Council will track the planning work of the SIC and, where appropriate; provide relevant input to the process.  We will also prepare to undertake a form of self-review in a similar format to that which we expect to arise out of the work of the SIC.  A self-review will ensure that we are not only prepared for the board initiated work but also able to flag areas for potential improvement in as timely as possible a manner.
