However, I am compelled to formally object to the proposal to remove WIPO as an expert due to a conflict of interest.

I would therefore urge caution in removing a source that is clearly a world expert in this area. Compounding the matter, I am not aware of anyone following up on this suggestion at this point. No organisation was identified as having a ‘conflict of interest given the nature of an IRP.’ No explanation has been given as to the existence of an actual conflict of interest. Furthermore, it is unclear what was meant by ‘the nature of an IRP’ in this context?</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class="">Therefore, I see no justification in removing a single dispute resolution provider like WIPO from the list of institutions that may be consulted with a view to preparing a standing panel. WIPO is an internationally-recognized institution which duly reports to its Member States (its annual Assemblies are in fact occurring this week), has neutrally and impartially operated the UDRP (covering 45,000 cases) for more than twenty (20) years now to the benefit of all ICANN stakeholders, which is trusted by over seventy-five (75) national registries for their policy and case expertise, and which has moreover led the way for ICANN in managing the LRO pre-delegation disputes process. Furthermore, I see no basis for ICANN staff to decide unilaterally to remove a provider from the list in a communication that is supposed to be prepared by the GNSO Council and for which I hold leadership responsibilities.</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class="">In order to rectify this situation, I see two options:</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><ol start="1" type="1" style="margin-bottom: 0cm;" class=""><li class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="">We revert back to the original text and, if necessary, have council debate on the subject; or<o:p class=""></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormalCxSpLast" style="">The objection could be withdrawn.<o:p class=""></o:p></li></ol><div class=""><span style="" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class="">Thank you.</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class="">Kind regards,</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="" class="">Flip</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class="">P.S.:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><span style="" class="">That said, I would suggest an additional change: that the GNSO Council consider removing the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) from the list, albeit for reasons unrelated to the subject above. To my knowledge, ICANN has not previously engaged with the PCA. Asking them to assist now may seem inappropriate unless we can provide compelling reasons to the contrary. As far as I am aware, ICANN has not had any intention to rely on PCA’s services, nor has it such intention for the future. During the last council meeting, I did make this suggestion, but I am not aware of any subsequent actions.</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class="">Flip Petillion</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class=""><a href="mailto:fpetillion@petillion.law" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class="">fpetillion@petillion.law</a></span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class="">+32484652653</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class=""><a href="http://www.petillion.law/" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class="">www.petillion.law</a></span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="NL-BE" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><a href="http://www.petillion.law/" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class=""><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;" class=""><span style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193);" class=""><img border="0" width="191" height="43" id="_x0000_i1025" src="cid:image002.png@01D57D2C.270E76B0" alt="signature_1434183782" style="width: 1.9895in; height: 0.4479in;" class=""></span></span></a><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="font-family: "Gill Sans MT Pro Light";" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span style="font-family: "Gill Sans MT Pro Light";" class=""> </span><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: "Gill Sans MT Pro Light";" class="">Attorneys – Advocaten - Avocats</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""><span lang="EN-GB" class=""> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="border-style: solid none none; border-top-width: 1pt; border-top-color: rgb(181, 196, 223); padding: 3pt 0cm 0cm;" class=""><div class=""><b class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="">From:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt;" class="">council <<a href="mailto:council-bounces@gnso.icann.org" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class="">council-bounces@gnso.icann.org</a>> on behalf of Julie Hedlund <<a href="mailto:julie.hedlund@icann.org" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class="">julie.hedlund@icann.org</a>><br class=""><b class="">Date:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>Tuesday, 1 October 2019 at 16:52<br class=""><b class="">To:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>Elsa S <<a href="mailto:elsa.saade@gmail.com" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class="">elsa.saade@gmail.com</a>>, "<a href="mailto:Council@gnso.icann.org" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class="">Council@gnso.icann.org</a>" <<a href="mailto:council@gnso.icann.org" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class="">council@gnso.icann.org</a>><br class=""><b class="">Subject:<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></b>Re: [council] [Ext] Re: Action Item: Draft Response to Questions on the Independent Review Process Oversight Team (IRP-IOT)</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div></div><div class=""><div class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></div></div><div class="">Dear Elsa and Councilors,<o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></div><div class="">As the deadline for comments ended yesterday, 30 September, and Elsa’s suggestion below is the only comment received, please see the attached final version of the response reflecting the minor change suggested by Elsa.
