discussion in and feedback from the GNSO's Working Session on Saturday, I've
asked ICANN staff to create some additional materials that I hope will be useful
during your discussions of the IGO-INGO motion with your respective
constituencies and stakeholder groups on Tuesday. ICANN staff has also consulted
with ICANN's legal department regarding the questions that were raised about
voting thresholds and Consensus Policies. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">The voting

Recommendation'.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">It should be
noted though that depending on whether a supermajority vote is achieved on a
recommendation, the voting threshold needed for the ICANN Board to determine
that such policy is not in the best interests of the ICANN community or ICANN
differs (i.e. if supermajority is achieved, it requires more than a 2/3 vote of
the Board, while if no supermajority is achieved, a majority vote of the Board
would be sufficient) - <A

<DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Calibri','sans-serif'">Furthermore, if a
supermajority threshold is achieved, the certainty of implementing some or parts
of some of the recommendations as Consensus Policy may be more clear, but
further determinations would need to be made in relation to each of the adopted
recommendations as part of the implementation process to determine what would be
the most effective / efficient way of implementation. If a supermajority
threshold is not achieved, alternative mechanisms can be considered to implement
the recommendations.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>

thing I'd like to suggest is that, instead of considering the request to the SCI

Council take up that item as part of our Consent Agenda during the Wednesday

the request?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
