<div><b>Implementing GAC Advice on Safeguards and Exclusive Generic gTLDs.</b></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px; border:none; padding:0px;">
<div>First item in Buenos Aires GAC Communique is a query about open and nondiscriminatory access to domains in new TLDs. Full Communique is <a href="http://www.icann.org/en/news/correspondence/gac-to-board-20nov13-en">here</a>. Excerpt below.</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION">
<div>The GAC welcomed the response of the Board to the GAC's Beijing Communiqué advice on Category 1 and Category 2 safeguards. The GAC received useful information regarding implementation of the safeguards during its discussions with the New gTLD Program Committee.
GAC members asked for clarification of a number of issues and look forward to ICANN's response.</div>
<br>
The GAC highlights the importance of its Beijing advice on 'Restricted Access' registries, particularly with regard to the need to avoid undue preference and/or undue disadvantage. The GAC requests a briefing on whether the Board considers that the existing
PIC specifications (including 3c) fully implements this advice.
<div><br>
</div>
Where this is 3c from Spec 11 of Standard Registry Agreement:c. Registry Operator will operate the TLD in a transparent manner consistent with general principles of openness and non-discrimination by establishing, publishing and adhering to clear registration
policies.</span>
