Dear Jorge<br>
<br>
I have to say that I agree with Greg on this. My interventions on
the HR working group have consistently focused on the ability of
ICANN to operate its IANA and other technical functions under policy
and/or numerous agreements with numerous technical bodies (such as
ccTLD operators, Root Zone operators etc) in support of a global,
interoperable Internet. The wording you propose would in my view
put this at risk - as I have point several times over the last years
the Rugge Principles, especially as those principles which apply to
supply chains and contractors, are well suited to a mining company
which can decide whether or not to do business in certain
circumstance in certain countries. ICANN does not have that
luxury. It is charged with supporting a Global Internet and hence
has to be able to deal with every relevant ccTLD operator, Root Zone
Operator, RIR etc, many of which it has agreements. In that sense
ICANN is not like a private company at all.<br>
<br>
Paul<br>

This is troublesome. The UNGP is not a human rights
declaration, so it should not be mentioned here.
Aside from covenants and declarations, this section of
the FoI discusses only international law. So the UNGP
does not belong here. Also, the proposal would drop
this statement into the middle of a discussion of
international human rights instruments (which apply to

in my view, that we feel that the public comment

thought: some that favored maintaining the text
sent to public comment “as is” (ALAC to a
certain extent, and a number of different GNSO
constituencies) and those (UK, BRZ, and CH)

recognition of the UN Guiding Principles (Ruggie

reflected at least some if not all of the
positions and proposals made by the named
Governments. This relates in particular,
<u>that the FOI text should make stronger
reference to the UN Guiding Principles as the
most relevant voluntary international standard</u>.

noted in an earlier email the Co-Chairs do not
believe the plenary can get through all of
these materials in a single two hour session
and that it is imperative we do so this week
given the timing constraints we are working
under. As such an additional 2 hour plenary
session has been added 28 September 1900 UTC
(the original plenary meeting scheduled for 27
September 1300 UTC still stands).<o:p></o:p></p>
