<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">At an early stage in its deliberations, the Reconvened PDP Working Group discussed the legal basis and public policy rationale for protecting the designations of the Red Cross National Societies and international
 movement; you can find the meeting records at <a href="https://community.icann.org/display/GWGTCT/2017+Meetings">
https://community.icann.org/display/GWGTCT/2017+Meetings</a>. The discussions included a review of the relevant parts of the prior PDP work and documents submitted for the March 2017 Copenhagen facilitated discussions and subsequently by the Red Cross. These
 discussions covered the scope of the Geneva Conventions and public policy rationale documented in GAC advice (for instance, at the 17 August 2017 meeting:
<a href="https://community.icann.org/display/GWGTCT/2017-08-17+IGO+INGO+PDP+Working+Group+on+Red+Cross+names">

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The Reconvened PDP Working Group spent a significant portion of its 2018 meetings discussing a process for additions to the list of names (i.e. when a new National Society is formed and recognized) as well
 as corrections; and it also discussed criteria for determination of the common and usual names (variants) of the list of recognized National Societies submitted by the Red Cross; these meeting records can be reviewed at
<a href="https://community.icann.org/display/GWGTCT/2018+Meetings">https://community.icann.org/display/GWGTCT/2018+Meetings</a>. As Chuck noted, these discussions took into account the practical difficulty of having to convene a PDP to approve changes and corrections.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Without minimizing any of the other concerns discussed, I thought that Farzaneh’s concern regarding the process for adding names without a PDP was an important
 one.  I think Mary and Barry answered it at a high level, noting that there would have to be a lengthy international process before that could happen, but I wonder if it might be helpful to outline in brief bullet form what steps the international community
 and the GNSO would have to go through before a name could be added to the finite list.  I understand that it is all in the report, but it might be easier for everyone to grasp it if those steps were listed in a concise manner.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">On the same topic, I would like to call attention to the WG recommended procedures for updating the finite list; in creating those procedures, the WG was fully
 cognizant of the time and effort required for a PDP to consider changes.  The NCSG has made it abundantly clear that they have limited resources that make it difficult to participate in all PDPs, so I would think that it would be beneficial to avoid PDPs when
 possible without compromising the bottom-up policy development process and I believe the recommendations sufficiently constrain the update process to accomplish that.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_MailOriginalBody"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Finally, I confess to be the one who suggested maybe the GNSO should consider not allowing SGs to defer motions related to PDPs in which they did not actively participate. 
 First note that I did NOT suggest that such SGs should not be able to participate in the public comment process.  Second, let me say that part of the basis of that idea was to create an incentive for WG participation.  A WG setting is much better suited for
 a constructive discussion on policy concerns than the public comment process.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
