<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">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>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">The UN Guiding Principles on Businesses and Human Rights (UNGP) are the universally accepted
voluntary standard for business organizations. Therefore, we feel that it should be mentioned under the instruments regarding “internationally recognized human rights”. In order to avoid any extension of the UNGP to the non-business elements of ICANN (SO/ACs)
there is specific mention that the UNGP would be relevant only for ICANN the Organization. In addition, the mention is constrained to having to “consider” the UNGP “as a useful guide” – which, in our view, eliminates any perceived danger of creating any obligation
whatsoever through this mention. </span><u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">Regarding
<b>agenda point 8</b> and specifically the <b>dissenting opinion</b> attached to the Report from the Subgroup dealing with the Framework of Interpretation (FOI) of the Human Rights Core Value (see p. 2 of the attached document), which I have filed together
with a number of colleagues, I would like to share some thoughts and a suggested path forward with the CCWG Plenary before the calls scheduled to discuss this.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">The main point of the dissent is, in my view, that we feel that the public comment period
showed the existence of two schools of 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) proposing some steps forward, especially
in the recognition of the UN Guiding Principles (Ruggie Principles). </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">However, again in our view, the discussions in the Subgroup did not yield a properly balanced
result, which would have 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>. In our view, the Subgroup did not undertake an inclusive enough effort to determine if a compromise text could be formulated
that would accommodate this position of the three governments.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">Therefore, I would like to
<u>suggest that the CCWG Plenary could decide that some additional efforts to reaching a broader consensus on this important issue should be made</u> – a broader consensus that could be more inclusive of all views expressed during the public comment period.
</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">Hence, I would
<u>suggest that the CCWG decides that the Report together with the dissent are sent back to the Subgroup with the request that a broader consensus solution is quickly sought within the coming e.g. 2 weeks after the Plenary call</u>.</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">I hope this way to proceed may seem reasonable to you and obtain your support during the
abovementioned call. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to your feedback.
</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"> </span><u></u><u></u></p>
