be best for me to recommend to CSG that our public comment on the Final Report provide input in favor of the Board instructing ICANN to issue an RFP for expert consultation
<u>comparing</u> the mechanisms from the standpoint of (a) costs, (b) ease of start-up, (c) ease of winding down (“sunset”), and (d) overall risk management.

<p class="MsoNormal">Concerning this particular topic, we're currently saying the following on page 12: "It is important to note that there are certain differences that apply as a result of the mechanism chosen which are further detailed in the responses to
the charter questions in the sections below which have impacted the CCWG’s decision on which mechanism(s) to recommend to the ICANN Board. In considering these recommendations, the CCWG anticipates that the ICANN Board may conduct a feasibility assessment
which provides further details on these aspects so that the Board can take an informed decision about supporting the most appropriate mechanism. . . "<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I hope you can agree that we can keep the current language until we have had a chance to review comments we receive during the Second Public Comment period. The reason is that we don't want to open discussions at this stage again because
it would mean we would have to postpone the timing for our Second Public Comment period. The current text covers the language we had discussed in the CCWG AP but it would make sense for you to offer a new text during the Second Public Comment period. The CCW
AP will have a chance then to discuss your proposal. <u></u><u></u></p>
