<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">As far as I understand we may be talking about someone that knows quite well GNSO and that could be a Councilor that would have step down recently
from GNSO Council. As far as I know these persons are funded by ICANN, but maybe I’m totally wrong, as I am not familiar with those procedures. So, the point would be not to lose the quality of the liaison even if I think that maybe the funding will not be
the main point here but the role of such liaison person. On the other side, as almost all the GAC sessions are open he/she can attend GAC meetings all the time but again the point here is to improve the work relationship between GAC and GNSO and that implies
a different work approach.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

case. Why does this task need to be paid? The liaison doesn´t need to be present at all GAC sessions, just those which are interesting for the GNSO. Thus, he or she can also attend part of the GNSO meetings.

brainstorm and came up with the attached which as a first step tries to identify what the respective objectives and expectations are. Fleshing out that part of the conversation further may assist in determining whether or not a 'reverse liaison' would be the
best mechanism to achieve the expectations. We also tried to identify a number of questions that would need to be addressed should it be determined that a liaison is the way to go, as well as some possible alternatives that could be considered should it be
decided that a liaison is not the most effective mechanism to achieve these objectives.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="ES" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">As the issue of funding of a possible liaison has come up on various occasions, Olof and I have also discussed whether it would be an idea to submit
a special budget request on behalf of the GNSO and GAC that would foresee for funding for a liaison to attend the ICANN meetings in FY15. This could be presented as a pilot project which would allow the GNSO-GAC to experiment with this position and consider
at the end of FY15 whether this should be continued as a pilot, transformed into a fixed funded slot or discarded. Obviously, we are still in the early phases of determining whether a liaison is the way to go and the nature of that role, but unfortunately,
the deadline for special budget requests is 7 March. If you all think this would be a helpful approach, Olof and I could go ahead and complete the required forms for your review, noting that at any point the GNSO-GAC could decide to withdraw the request should
a different approach be pursued. </span><span lang="ES"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
