> 
> Dear Advisors,
> as you will have noted, the ICANN Board has filed comments on our 3rd draft report a few days back (attached). Our group thanks the Board for these comments, some of which can be addressed during the implementation of our work.
> 
> However, there are a few areas where the Board has raised concerns with respect to the Global Public Interest.
> 
> These are:
> 
> Recommendation #1: Establishing an Empowered Community for Enforcing Community Powers
> 
> Recommendation #4: Ensuring Community Engagement in ICANN Decision-making: Seven New Community Powers
> Budget & start plan
> 
> Recommendation #5: Changing Aspects of ICANN’s Mission, Commitments and Core Values
> 
> Recommendation #6: Reaffirming ICANN’s Commitment to Respect Internationally Recognized Human Rights as it Carries Out its Mission
> 
> Recommendation #12: Committing to Further Accountability Work in Work Stream 2
> 
> In its resolution of October 16th, 2014, the Board had clarified that it would test whether final recommendations are in the Global Public Interest.
> 
> We have asked the Board to provide information on what definition of the Global Public Interest it has used and what the rationale for their current assessment of our recommendations is. The answer to that question is still pending.
> 
> However, we are reaching out to you now as we want to understand better the impact of Global Public Interest as we continue to work on our final recommendations. Our plan is to offer explanations in our final report where we speak to the Global Public Interest and why we are of the opinion that our recommendations in their final form are in the Global Public Interest.
> 
> We would therefore appreciate your input at your earliest convenience on
> 
> 1.      suggested definition(s) of the Global Public Interest that our group could use;
> 
> 2. which of the recommendations in our 3rd report, if any, give raise Global Public Interest concerns according to your assessment; and
> 
> 3. how you suggest we can resolve the Global Public Interest issues, which are identified.
> 
> 
> Thank you very much,  kind regards and a great holiday season,
