Dear All

Please find attached below the notes and action items from Wednesday’s meeting:

Review of draft charter

The Drafting Team (DT) continued the review of the latest version of the draft Charter. The outstanding items were as follows -

Page 2: Problem statement  

(para beginning "The new gTLD auction proceeds...") should include statement saying "Funds are invested conservatively and any interests accrue to the fund."

(JR comment 1) DT agreed language to remain as currently drafted.

Page 3: Scope

(SC Comment 2) DT agrees to remain with "not inconsistent" terminology but Chair to ensure that drafting is internally consistent and English used is as simple and plain as possible.

(MK Comment 4) DT determined that this section should revert to previously prepared wording which responds to the specific issue of lobbying restrictions in the US, whilst recognising global differences. [ACTION: SE to prepare revised language to deal with this issue]

(pt. 11) [ACTION: SE to provide some language from Board's previous comments to define this point more clearly for the CCWG]
