<p><span style="color: rgb(31, 73, 125); font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 16px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Again, in order to be crystal clear on page 23 of the Proposed Final Report, it would also be helpful if Samantha could clarify
how specific ByLaws amendments can be proposed based on the CCWG recommendations. The ByLaws seem to provide in Article 25 that this cannot be “directly proposed” by the CCWG itself so I assume that what the CCWG recommends would need to then lead to a formulation
by the Board of a specific ByLaws amendment. See attached section 25.4. </span><br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>If the CCWG recommends that an exception be made in the Bylaws, the Board will initiate the Fundamental Bylaws process through authorizing the posting of proposed language for public comment. If there's an IRT established to assist in implementation, org
would expect to share the draft of any proposed language with that IRT prior to public posting. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>On the EC budgetary powers, org is not making any recommendation as to a carve out or not. That is a community decision. But if a carve out is a path that the CCWG wishes to take, we do not think that any mechanism will lead to individual grant applications being
listed within a future-year's budget or planning document. Because of that, we do not see much difference in how a budget rejection would be activated for any of the mechanisms.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Erika, Becky, et al,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:#1F497D">Proposed Final Report and Consensus</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I believe there was CCWG consensus regarding the need for a Fundamental ByLaws change as to the unavailability of Request for Reconsideration (RFR) and Independent Review Panel (IRP) in relation to
<u>applicants</u> vis-à-vis the grant-making process. Here, the CCWG makes a NEW recommendation on page 23 of the Proposed Final report in relation to remedies available to applicants for grants. This recommendation does not cover the possibility of RFR
and IRP that might be filed by someone other than an applicant and I believe that risk must be controlled as well. (It’s possible persons other than applicants could file an RFR or an IRP in relation to ICANN’s handling of the grant-making process.) The
Proposed Final Report should likely also reflect that this requires a Fundamental ByLaws change requiring approval by 3/4 of the EC because public commenters need to know this.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">In the limited tracking I have done prior to becoming the voting rep for the CSG Chartering organization, I don’t recall any specific discussions in relation to a ByLaws amendment relative to the powers of the
Empowered Community established in the revisions to the ByLaws made in 2016 as a result of the Accountability Workstream 1 work. Did the CCWG discuss these specific Empowered Community powers in relation to the Budget relative to use of Auction Proceeds?
Should the CCWG clarify that we are not recommending ByLaws changes in relation to EC powers? And if we do, does that make individual grants subject to EC powers (a result the CCWG does not want.)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">To be specific, it does not appear to me from the Proposed Final Report that there has ever been a CCWG Consensus Recommendation in relation to (a) availability of RFR and IRP to persons other than applicants
for grants or (b) any effect on the EC powers memorialized in 2016 in relation to the use of Auction Proceeds funds. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I sincerely hope we can clarify that the CCWG is not recommending that the Empowered Community give up the Accountability processes contained in the ByLaws in relation to Budgeting of funds obtained via Auction
Proceeds. In my view as an active member of Subsequent Procedures, this is a long term concern since the Sub Pro WG is quite likely to confirm that auctions will remain the mechanism of last resort in string contention far into the future. While I understand
that “ability to Sunset” is important in relation to the principle of not trying to establish a long term principal endowment, it does seem appropriate to consider that future new gTLD rounds were always intended and are likely to proceed at some point. Thus,
future auctions are likely to result in additional auction proceeds.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Again, in order to be crystal clear on page 23 of the Proposed Final Report, it would also be helpful if Samantha could clarify how specific ByLaws amendments can be proposed based on the CCWG recommendations.

</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Accordingly, in relation to the Proposed Final Report, I believe that the Recommendation (NEW) on page 23 should be reworked to clarify the CCWG Recommendations in relation to the needed ByLaws amendments.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color:#1F497D">Choice of Mechanism and Survey</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Separately, in regard to the description of risk management I will need to provide to the CSG, I am trying to clarify whether it would be advisable (for the Board, ICANN org, the Community, and the grant recipients
themselves) to structure as follows:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">(1) Fundamental ByLaws change to remove RFR and IRP from (a) remedies for applicants for the funds (b) remedies for anyone else who may have standing to file against ICANN decisions about Budgeting re use of
funds inside the org and (b) ICANN decisions about how much to allot to grant-making in “tranches”.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">(2) Preserve EC Powers as they stand in the ByLaws in relation to general Budgeting for both (a) the ICANN org use of the Auction Proceeds funds and (b) ICANN org budgeting of “tranches” for grant-making purposes.
EC powers as to the Budget process have a much higher threshold for challenging ICANN’s accountability than do RFR and IRP. A challenge is not easily mounted and a forum must be convened, etc, etc. But I don’t think anyone would want the EC powers to apply
to any individual grant. So it seems we need to choose a structure that keeps the “Budget” aspect of an overall line item for grants within the EC Accountablity provisions but puts the individual grant-making outside the EC Accountablity powers. (Perhaps
I am wrong that individual grant-making could be subject to EC general powers if Mechanism A is utilized and if so, please advise. I just don’t think the CCWG actually has a Consensus on recommending a ByLaws change in relation to the EC accountability powers.)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">(3) To preserve the EC powers as to Budget, it would seem “cleaner” to place the actual individual grant-making processes outside ICANN org and have the CCWG recommend and the EC acknowledge that specific individual
grants are not subject to the EC Budgeting powers if </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="color:#1F497D">(a) they are made by a pre-existing non-profit with expertise in grant-making working under the guidelines provided by the work of the CCWG and in accordance with the Board’s oversight
responsibilities and fiduciary duties. (Mechanism B)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="color:#1F497D">(b) or they are made by an ICANN Foundation formed with an independent Board of Directors similar to the manner in which PTI was formed with ICANN as the sole member of the corporation
and thus well able to conduct oversight and fiduciary responsibilities. </span>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">I appreciate any observations other CCWG members may have that will help bring me up to speed.</span></p>

clarify one question as to Article 25.4 OTHER AMENDMENTS. “Neither the EC, the Decisional Participants, the Supporting Organizations, the Advisory Committees nor any other entity or person shall have the power to directly propose amendments to these Bylaws”.
In this regard, I gather that the CCWG recommends and then the Board itself will specifically propose a Fundamental ByLaws amendment in relation to Auction Proceeds. Is that your understanding?

mechanism chosen) OR (b) internal use by ICANN Org in its own budget. (Perhaps that is why there is a bullet point in Board comment relative to the cost of complying with Accountability mechanisms. However, this cost is identified in that Board comment that
now appears on page 10 of the Proposed Final Draft as a cost associated ONLY with Mechanism A. The other mechanisms are listed in the Board input as requiring the further development of independent Accountability mechanisms so that is a bit confusing.)
However, overall Budgeting is of course different from the making of individual grants per se. I think we definitely need to protect individual grants from being revoked by the EC.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><b><span style="color:#1F497D">Fundamental ByLaws Changes</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="color:#1F497D">It appears that eliminating Request for Reconsideration (RFR) and Independent Review Panel (IRP) Accountability mechanisms would be a Fundamental ByLaws change requiring 3/4 approval from the Empowered
Community members (some of whom may not have implemented EC processes yet?) Can you confirm this? (Article 25).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><b><span style="color:#1F497D">Mechanism B</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="color:#1F497D">In Mechanism B, ICANN works with an outside contractor already set up for non-profit grant-making. In that case, it would seem that although overall Budget allocation and tranches may still be subject
to Empowered Community processes, individual grants made by the pre-existing expert non-profit would not necessarily be subject to being revoked through an EC process. In other words, working with a qualified expert grant-making organization could reduce
risk, including the risk to recipients of grants. (EC processes could theoretically be used to affect or influence the choice of the independent expert non-profit organization and the amount being allocated in any “tranche”.)</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><b><span style="color:#1F497D">Mechanism C</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><span style="color:#1F497D">Re Mechanism C, when PTI was formed, the structure chosen was ICANN as sole member of a California non-profit public benefit corporation (Article 16.2). I believe actions by the PTI Board of Directors
remain subject to Empowered Community accountability processes, but not to RFR and IRP, but am not sure. Can you confirm? If this is the case, could another California non-profit public benefit corporation be set up in the same manner for purposes of grant-making
pursuant to Mechanism C? (I am also wondering if outside legal resources were used to set up PTI or if this was done in-house.) In other words, could another CA non-profit formed pursuant to Mechanism C be exempted from RFR and IRP, but NOT be exempted from
other EC accountability mechanisms, in the same manner as the PTI formation was handled?</span></p>

<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:black">From the legal perspective, we considered the interplay of the Bylaws/accountability processes with the different mechanisms and our conclusion is that, absent a Bylaws change to exclude individual
grant actions from the IRP/Reconsideration processes, there still remains a risk of the use of ICANN accountability processes whether the grant disbursements are completed through Mechanisms A, B or C. With that, the need to address the scope of the accountability
mechanisms through Bylaws changes exists across all three mechanisms.</span></p>

subject to review under the Empowered Community Accountablity rules? On page 10 of the current draft, there is a bullet point called “On-going costs only in Mechanism A – Management and support of ICANN’s accountability mechanisms triggered by the grant distribution
activity (if any.)” </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white">In terms of risk assessment, I really can’t see the grant-making process being subject to the Empowered Community accountability procedures. On the other hand, I don’t know that the EC will readily accept amending
the ByLaws for purposes of getting the grant-making outside the EC process. This is especially true in that all the Accountability work was done in CCWGs in two lengthy work-streams. I apologize if this was previously discussed by the CCWG – doing my best
to catch up.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white">If we think that the ByLaws would need to be amended not only to remove the availability of the Request for Reconsideration (RFR) and the Independent Review Panel (IRP), but also to be amended to state that the
power given to the Empowered Community does not apply to such grant-making, then we should say so in the Proposed Final Report.</p>
