<div><br>
</div>
<div>HRC resolutions are non-binding, relying on states to follow up through their actions. A HRC endorsement, unanimous or otherwise, does not create legal obligations for states or ICANN. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The UNGP are similar in that they are voluntary on businesses except where applicable laws have been enacted by states binding businesses in their jurisdiction. This concept is already amply expressed in the consensus text. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Personally, I think Greg is being too generous in offering you further compromise after the group had arrived at broad consensus. But instead of accepting his olive branch, you continue to insist on further changes in your direction. Apparently, you believe
we should not proceed until your position triumphs. How is that in anyway compromise?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best wishes,</div>
<div><br>

accept that Greg’s proposed text replaces a “should” by a “could” and that it also limits my general reference to the UNGP to a reference to “certain aspects”. I even may go with the introductory wording of Greg’s formulation, that may be construed as implying

United Nations. As other declarations mentioned in the FoI, it is not as such a legally binding document, but it was unanimously endorsed in 2011 by the United Nations Human Rights Council through a formal resolution. ICANN has, as many have said here, business
organization aspects – so it is a relevant instrument.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">I'm not sure where this stands procedurally, as we are between first and second readings of the Human Rights Subgroup's report. Putting that concern aside, I thought it could be fruitful to
respond to this proposal in the same spirit of compromise. If an acceptable resolution can be found, that would presumably resolve the "dissent" in the Subgroup Report, allowing the CCWG Draft Report to be circulated for public comment without a minority
report. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">In considering this proposal, I believe that Jorge's suggested language would fit much more naturally into the section of the "Considerations" text where the Ruggie Principles are already discussed.
That would avoid the appearance of contradictions between the FoI and the Considerations, and/or the need to insert qualifiers into the FoI to resolve any apparent contradictions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">Therefore, I suggest that a revision to the Report, by taking Jorge's second sentence (slightly revised and rearranged) and placing it in this section of the Considerations text, where it will
be read in the context of the existing Ruggie discussion. In this context, the first sentence (which is not really substantive) is no longer necessary. The revision would read as follows (new text in red).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

As other declarations mentioned in the FoI, it is not as such a legally binding document, but it was unanimously endorsed in 2011 by the United Nations Human Rights Council through a formal resolution. ICANN has, as many have said here, business organization
aspects – I may well accept to nuance it as Avri proposed (“not-profit business organization”, I think) – so it is a relevant instrument.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-US">My concern is not to ensure that ICANN can continue to coordinate with all the relevant technical organizations around the world (many of which are government
run) which enable the operate of the Domain Name System, the IP address allocation and the Protocol Parameter responsibilities of the IANA functions.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-US">Just to give one example, let us look at ccTLD operators. ICANN does have a range of agreements within around 86 ccTLD operators, (See:
</span><a href="https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/cctlds/cctlds-en" target="_blank"><span lang="EN-US">https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/cctlds/cctlds-en</span></a><span lang="EN-US">) I do not think we intend to establish wording which would
result in dissident groups from various countries going to a US court arguing that ICANN is in breach of its bylaws by having an explicit or implied agreement with a ccTLD operator recognized as part of the IANA process, especially where the dissident group
alleges that the ccTLD operator is breaching human rights by following its government’s instructions on registrations. You can think of several examples where this may happen. Having the sections above applying to ICANN (even where it operates as a business)
would put at risk ICANN’s ability to be a global coordinator as per its mission. By definition, it has to be able to serve every ccTLD.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

ICANN breaking off links with that ccTLD. Which brings me back to my global coordinator challenge.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<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>

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><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><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><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>

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><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<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><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<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><o:p></o:p></p>

abovementioned call. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to your feedback.

at the same time <i>the UN CSTD Working Group on Enhanced Cooperation</i>. Hence, I would be very thankful if this issue could be discussed on the Thursday call instead if possible.
