 Report</span></a></span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica Neue";color:black"> to the GNSO Council, the work on the gating questions can be considered to be completed and the work on a System for Standardized Access to Non-Public Registration
 Data, or otherwise known as phase 2 of the EPDP, should be allowed to commence. However, per the EPDP Team Charter, beginning that work is dependent upon non-objection of the GNSO Council (which is captured and granted in the resolution language for item 4
 of this agenda). As part of the resolved clause, “...The Council does request that the EPDP Team, as a first step, develops its work plan for phase 2 and, furthermore, identifies whether the GNSO Council should consider any updates to the EPDP Team Charter
 to facilitate the EPDP Team’s work.” With the 4 March 2019 adoption of the Final Report by the Council, including the relevant resolved clause, the Council grants its non-objection for the EPDP Team to commence phase 2 work.</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica Neue";color:#172B4D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
