Chris, <br>
<br>
Sorry for chiming in but I believe the point below deserves our full
attention. It is indeed apparent in some contributions that the key
concern about the single member model lies in a (at least perceived)
lack of accountability of the SO and ACs. <br>
<br>
The CCWG report was recommending to add SO/AC accountability to the
list of topics reviewed on a regular basis under the Board's
supervision. And work further in WS2. This did not seem to properly
address the concerns. <br>
<br>
Did the Board spend time considering what enhancements to SO/AC
accountability systems would bring these bodies to a level of
accountability which would be felt appropriate ? Or what the current
(perceived, at least) accountability issues were ? <br>
<br>
It would immensely valuable to our group if you or other Board
members (or other stakeholders who shared that view) could provide
additional details on this, because I believe this is absolutely
central in the discussion regarding the single member model, but may
not have been totally, explicitly stated so far. <br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Mathieu<br>

I disagree. Under the Board’s proposal there is a focussed point
that can be ‘attacked' and put to arbitration and eventual
judicial decision. Under the member model there is a gap because
the same things cannot happen to the member. In the Board’s
proposal the ultimate responsibility is the Board’s subject to
binding arbitration and court enforcement. In the CCWG model the
ultimate responsibility is the member but to whom are they
accountable under the mission of ICANN that we must act in the
global public interest.</span></blockquote>
