> The Analysis Group¹s revised report on the TMCH notes the need to consider the
> tradeoffs that may need to be made among various stakeholder groups in making
> policy decisions on these topics. The report emphasizes that limitations of
> the data used for the report meant the Analysis Group could not reach
> definitive conclusions on a possible deterrent effect, or perform a
> cost-benefit analysis. Will it be helpful for the Working Group (or a relevant
> Sub Team) to try to identify whether, and how, the data gap can be filled for
> these topics of ongoing discussion?

> In 2016, the GNSO Council approved the recommendations of its Working Group on
> Data & Metrics for Policy Making, with the result that there is now a process
> in place by which active Working Groups can formally request that the GNSO
> Council or ICANN approve data acquisition (other than via the informal
> processes used to date). This may be especially useful in instances where it
> is necessary to obtain data through professional assistance and third party
> sources (but which carry a potential budgetary and resource impact).

> The process requires that the group:
> ·        Provide a detailed problem statement

> ·        Identify a set of requirements to determine the scope of the exercise
> 
> ·        Identify potential sources (internal and external)
> 
> ·        Make an estimate regarding the resources required such as scope,
> people, access to data, complexity of requirements, sources, and possible
> budget implications (see Section 4.5, pages 14-15 of the GNSO Working Group
