Alan Greeberg: Was there ever a reconciliation of the money taken from the reserve? If there is a deficit does this need to be added to the applicant fees?

Jannik Skou Thomsen Trampedach: Clarification To Chairs: To what degree is this group supposed to provide "detailed" implementation guidelines rather than addresing a principle frameworks with suggestions for "things/issues" to change/implement. Example: Is job done by suggesting we need categories of strings with requirements fit for each categories ? Or are we supposed to suggested exact criteria for each category (GEOs/Brands/cultural/non for profit TLDs etc?</div><div><br></div><div>Answer: (Jeff Neuman) — Previously we provided high-level principles, but not implementation details. Perhaps more guidance is needed, but it depends on how deeply we get into criteria. Since 2007 the GNSO developed policy & implementation guidelines. (Avri Doria) — There is a formal procedure for doing that implementation oversight work. (Mary Wong) — <span style="font-family: -webkit-standard;"> The </span><span style="font-family: -webkit-standard;">Policy & Implementation Working Group recommended certain principles for policy making as well as a Consensus Policy Implementation Framework (among other recommendations) See the </span><span style="font-family: -webkit-standard;">Final Report from that Working Group, containing all their recommendations as of June 2015: </span><a href="http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/policy-implementation-recommendations-01jun15-en.pdf" style="font-family: -webkit-standard;">http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/policy-implementation-recommendations-01jun15-en.pdf</a>.</div><div><br></div><div><u>Work Stream 2: Legal/Regulatory</u></div></div></span></div></span><div><br></div><div>Clarifying Questions:</div><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 14px; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div>a.
