<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">In regard to the issue of potential amendment of the UDRP – It would be instructive to know the GAC’s rationale for opposing any UDRP amendments as a means of providing IGOs with access to
curative rights. Further, in opposing such amendments, does the GAC thus advise the GNSO to preclude any possible change to its "Mutual Jurisdiction" provisions to address specific sovereign immunity concerns of IGOs? Finally, if it is the GAC’s position
that an entirely new curative rights mechanism must be created, </span> <span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">is it the GAC's understanding that the protections afforded to qualifying IGOs under Article 6ter of the Paris Convention would be the criteria
for establishing standing under any dispute resolution procedure that may apply to IGOs?</span>
