the Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability
(CCWG-Accountability) met in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on June 19, 2015.</span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">The CCWG face-to-face meeting in Buenos Aires, Argentina, was attended
in-person by XXXX members and participants, as well as by a number of
participants and observers that joined the meeting remotely using the virtual
meeting room. XXX Advisors also participated.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">The group discussed the summaries it had earlier prepared of the
comments received from the community during the first public comment period on its
initial draft report (</span><span lang="ES-MX"><a href="https://www.icann.org/public-comments/ccwg-accountability-draft-proposal-2015-05-04-en" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US" style="color:rgb(56,110,255);font-family:Arial">https://www.icann.org/public-comments/ccwg-accountability-draft-proposal-2015-05-04-en</span></a></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">) and can report the following:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">Broad support was received for the overall accountability architecture
proposed, based on on 4 building blocks, i.e. an empowered community, the
Board, the Bylaws and the Independent Review Process.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">Most comments considered the proposals would be improvements to ICANN’s
current accountability mechanisms. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">Several commenters recommended the CCWG take a more detailed look at the
accountability of the community itself (the SOs and ACs) and also to ensure
that ICANN is accountable to all stakeholders, including those outside ICANN.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">While most commenters expressed support for the recommendations, some
expressed concerns primarily regarding implementation details, legal implications
and complexity, as well as on the underlying costs and risks associated with
the proposals. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">The CCWG values the input received so far and will continue working to
refine its initial draft report. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">While encouraged by the support received on the overall approach, the
group acknowledges the concerns expressed and will give due consideration to
suggestions and concerns as it develops a revised proposal in preparation for
the upcoming second public comment period.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">With regards to the community empowerment mechanism, the CCWG considered
various models presented in the meeting and acknowledged commonality of views
with regards to expectations of such models, including the need to set up
mutual accountability, and enhancements to openness and diversity.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">In particular, a number of commenters have raised concerns with the
reference model. In that model, SOs and ACs would be required to set up
separate legal entities, such as formally registering unincorporated
associations, as their legal vehicle to exercise community powers. Feedback
suggested that the community sees this model as too complex. The CCWG has
analyzed these comments carefully and will now focus its work on a refined
model. This fresh approach, provisionally called the Empowered SO/AC model,
gives the community comparable authority while not adding legal entities
separate from the SOs and ACs.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">The CCWG also considered public comments related to the dependencies
with the CWG-Stewardship's final proposal. As the CWG’s proposal is under consideration
by Chartering organizations, the CCWG notes that each of the items that the CWG
has identified as critical to its proposal received overall support from the
community. None of the comments suggested that CWG requirements could or should
not be met. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:Arial">The CCWG will share these outcomes and considerations with the various
groups and communities during ICANN 53. The group looks forward to continuing
the fruitful exchanges that inform further deliberations towards a second round
of public comment, which is expected to be published by the end of July.</span></p>
