Hi Sidley team, 

 

The Client Committee has a meeting scheduled for Thursday, 10 December at
17:00 UTC. Please note that the conference call details are slightly
different this week, as noted in your calendar invite. 

 

The CWG-Stewardship has a call on Tuesday 15 December during which the group
would review Sidley's work on dependencies and prepare its submission into
the CCWG-Accountability public comment. Since there is currently no further
CWG-Stewardship meeting planned before the end of the CCWG-Accountability
public comment, the meeting on the 15th is essential for content review.
Would it be possible for Sidley to submit its review by the end of this week
(Friday 11 December) so that the CWG-Stewardship can read through the work
in advance of the Tuesday meeting? 

 

Thank you, 

Grace

Dear Sidley team, 

 

Below is a note from the Chairs outlining a process for review of the
CCWG-Accountability dependencies. Following on the process for the CCWG's
2nd Public Comment, the Chairs suggested to the CWG-Stewardship that Sidley
assist with tracking these dependencies. During the CWG-Stewardship meeting
today (archived here <https://community.icann.org/x/kbpYAw> ), the group
approved instruction to Sidley for this project. 

 

The request is for Sidley to work on item #1 and have in mind that the
CWG-Stewardship will be requesting item #2 as an update in the future. I've
copied the two items directly below for your convenience: 

1.	Review the CCWG proposal put out for public comment and then submit
confirmation to the public comment that the CCWG proposal does meet the CWG
conditionality (if indeed it does) and; 
2.	Confirm that the final proposal (to be prepared following the public
comment period) continues to meet the CWG conditionality  (if indeed it
does).

 

Ideally, this work should be ready for the CWG-Stewardship call on 15
December so that the CWG-Stewardship can review and make its submission to
the CCWG-Accountability Public Comment thereafter. 

 

I'm sending this note on behalf of the Client Committee due to the relative
urgency of the project. To discuss other approved projects, the Client
Committee proposes a teleconference next week. Please reply to indicate any
times/dates for which you are unavailable and we will schedule accordingly. 

 

Thank you, 

Grace

Subject: [CWG-Stewardship] A process to resolve CWG Stewardship dependencies
on CCWG Accountability

 

All,

 

During our CWG meeting last week, we were unable to deal fully with the
topic of the CCWG on ICANN accountability in so far as it is directly
relevant to the work of this group.

In particular, confirming the process to deal with the fact that the CWG
Stewardship response to the ICG is expressly conditioned on the CCWG
Accountability proposal.

 

The CCWG have had a formal update
<https://www.icann.org/news/blog/ccwg-accountability-issues-formal-update-on
-progress-made-in-and-after-icann54-in-dublin>  out for a while now, ahead
of publication of their 3rd draft proposal which is due out on Monday,
November 30th.

 

We propose to utilise the services of Sidley Austin to confirm that the CCWG
Accountability proposal does indeed meet the conditionality requirements of
the CWG Stewardship. As you will recall, Sidley reviewed the previous CCWG
proposal and assisted similarly.

 

Moreover, we propose to undertake this work in two stages:

 

1.      Review the CCWG proposal put out for public comment and then submit
confirmation to the public comment that the CCWG proposal does meet the CWG
conditionality (if indeed it does) and 

2.      Confirm that the final proposal (to be prepared following the public
comment period) continues to meet the CWG conditionality  (if indeed it
does).

 

We believe that by working in this way, we will be able to

 

A.     Assist the CCWG by clearly communicating our position at the key
stages. As we have done throughout the course of their work

B.     Assist the CCWG chartering organisations at key stages of their
processes such that the they will be able to review the proposal and make
their respective decisions with clear knowledge of the CWG position.

 

We look forward to working with the CWG on this and other matters over the
forthcoming weeks.

 

Thank-you.

 

 

 

Lise & Jonathan
