[gnso-review-dt] WP Formal Response to Recommendation 23 - Please Review

[Jen Wolfe]

Thank you to all who participated in today's call regarding a formal response from the Working Party to the Organizational Effectiveness Committee to object to Recommendation 23.

For those of you who could not attend, please note that we are working on a formal response to the independent examiner's Recommendation 23 which, in the final report, was amended to state:

Recommendation 23:  In order to support ICANN's multi-stakeholder model, All Cs should have seats on the GNSO Council, allocated equally (as far as numerically practicable) by their SG's.  I am attaching the summary of all changes to the recommendations provided in the Final Report.

This change in the Final Report has raised concerns by members of the Working Party.  We are aiming to provide a formal response to the OEC when they meet NEXT Monday, September 28th.    Because of the short turn-around time, we are asking that all Constituencies and Stakeholder groups respond with either comments or note objections by paragraph number.  We are also working toward providing this to GNSO Council prior to their meeting on Thursday to elicit feedback from Council.

A revised version will be circulated by tomorrow to the distribution list.  We understand and acknowledge the rapid turn-around time and recognize that all of you are very busy.  Unfortunately, this change was made in the final report released on September 15 and we did not have an opportunity to comment on this before it was released publicly.  If you can please circulate to your respective groups, we would appreciate it.

We have noted that many groups have not been well represented during our calls.  If you can kindly let me know if you have the time and interest in continuing to participate, I would appreciate it.  We want to ensure that this response and our ongoing work is consensus driven.

Thanks again for your continued commitment to this process!

With kind regards,

Jen
