<span style="color:#1F497D">&gt;&gt;&nbsp; </span>&nbsp;I think ICANN has gone too far down the route of heavy, formal reviews. If there is a group that the Board is effectively obliged to listen to, then small improvements to accountability processes can be made over time
 with focussed, more frequent discussions.<span style="color:#1F497D"></span></p>

<span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif; color:#1F497D">Agreed.&nbsp; WE &nbsp;have at least 8 reviews I thin coming up in the next 12 months or so.&nbsp; Each review kicks of $ millions of work for consultants &#8211; that doesn&#8217;t always produce results
 that justify the cost and time of all involved.</span></p>

<span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif; color:#1F497D">I am thinking that the next round of reviews should focus on assessing whether the changes made from the last review have been effective &#8211; and potentially refine those changes further
 so they are effective.&nbsp;&nbsp; These reviews should be time boxed &#8211; e.g to take the period starting and end with an ICANN public meeting- rather than year long reviews that kick of 5 years of project work.</span></p>

<span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,sans-serif; color:#1F497D">For example in the WHOIS area &#8211; the registrar agreement were changed to require email and postal address checks.&nbsp;&nbsp; It would be worth seeing if these have made any dent in making
 it easier to track down criminals.</span></p>
