<div>Your intrigue is well <font face="arial,sans-serif">taken. You are right in that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) and was passed <span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">by Congress in 2002. It also </span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">
affects publicly-traded companies. However, </span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Times-Roman">the spate of recent problems in non-profit organizations has led to legislative proposals to extend the provisions of SOX to non-profits.
<span> </span></span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Times-Roman">The two areas of SOX applicable to nonprofits are the rules relating to document destruction and whistle-blower protection. </span></span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial">

<div><font face="arial,sans-serif"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><font size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; COLOR: black; FONT-FAMILY: Times-Roman"></span></font></span></font> </div>
<div><font face="arial,sans-serif">In any case, my reference to SOX was purely to disclose my experience in working in areas that we are currently dealing with i,e COI, transparency etc... it is not to suggest the adaption of SOX within ICANN at all, and I agree it is very cumbersome, if we adapt it. Although at a high level, we should be looking at SOX from the perspective of future compliance. As I mentioned above, SOX for non-profit would be a future mandate. Also see this link below just to give you an idea as to where SOX is at for non-profits.

<div><font face="arial,sans-serif">Regarding our immediate concern of 'statement of interest', the policy definition of SOX would also NOT be out of scope, but may not directly apply to this particular subject. I am sort of intrigued on how we can implement a transparent policy, where the organization's structure is made of 'interested parties'. That is a perplexing problem and I shall be thinking about that.
</font></div>
<div><font face="arial,sans-serif"></font> </div>
<div><font face="arial,sans-serif">As for my consulting business, it is not subject to SOX, since it is a private company, but most of the work we are currently doing in the US is providing consultancy in this area.</font>
Therefore, I maybe wearing my SOX most of the time. Certainly for ICANN, we are not there yet. </div>

<div>I hope I have clarified myself.</div><br>Sophia<br> </div>

<div></div>
<div>Interesting comments by Ross and Marilyn re: implementing true standards of objectivity as well as ICANN's nature of business which is based on "interest: seem to be in conflict of our perusal of COI policy at the GNSO level and leaves us to a challenge of devising a specialized statement.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The "testing" of Sarbane-Oxley need not apply to ICANN at all, but the principles behind the legislation, is the cornerstone of what we are trying to accomplish, i.e transparency and accountability as well as the statement of interest. "Testing" can only be performed after policies have been put in place and that should be an independent committee work.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In any case, given ICANN's mission and role, I agree with Ross that we start with a statement of interest and work with transparency based rules as the next step. As for launching it a work initiative, if we at least know what should not be included, which seem to be what Ross and Marilyn have suggested, I doubt it would be a cumbersome requirement. But then again, I am the new Councilor!.

<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">So, far, then it's Sophia, Marilyn and Maureen who have volunteered. But I have a request before there is any creation of a small working group or even an initiative– discussion and prioritization, consideration of what is feasible, and staff support needs.
</span></font><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">In addition to our own discussion, I do suggest that we discuss this with the General Counsel of ICANN. We need to considering our work priorities – everything is important, and there are practicalities to consider before launching a work initiative. We have a Operational Plan and an emerging StratPlan for the Council. As we come up with great ideas for more work initiatives, we should consider how they fit into the overall work plan and priorities – and even perhaps maybe part of other work initiatives
</span></font><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">It is easy to launch new initiatives, and we need to consider resourcing of our staff support as well. I would think that we would want to have a discussion with the GC and also perhaps discuss with the ccNSO, how they see addressing this issue.
</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"> </span></font><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">
Just a comment: A discussion with the GC is essential. Sarbanes Oxley is a rather burdensome "test", and not really developed quite for the "organization" that ICANN is. Further, ICANN 's community, and its leaders and its participants will by nature have many many interests. – and thus there will by nature be conflicts. Understanding whether these are of the nature that require recusing oneself from a vote, versus the need to fully disclose the relationships -- for instance, councilors may have clients who have interests in the policy outcome – that would by nature be all registrars and all registries – and many others within the constituencies. That isn't a bad thing. But should be a transparent thing.
</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">As we all know, it isn't only financial commitments that bring conflicts of interest, and that influence "interests".
</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">So, even though we have three volunteers, I suspect that we should really have a discussion with the full council before we hove off into a working group, and we need to understand the priorities of work, what resources are needed, whether this is part of our changes of council before we complete "review", etc.
</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"></span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Still, I'm volunteering.</span></font><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">
</span></font></p>
<p><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Grant, can you also post the InternetNZ Councilor's process to the email string – just for informational purposes?
