[Gnso-sc-budget] Bullet point on GSE

[Martin Pablo Silva Valent]

I agree with Dona on the need to not appear a stone-throwing body, but the point is needed. Maybe we could just the last part were we claim there is no documents, etc. and just leave the rest were we claim the importance of having this activities closely analyzed. 

Cheers,
Martín

The GNSO Council requests that ICANN review its global stakeholder engagement activities to ensure that they are all closely aligned with ICANN's mission, and assess how activities meet this criteria. We believe that there should be a particular focus on what tangible outcomes - both direct and indirect - have been derived from ICANN's participation or sponsorship of these events. We greatly appreciate that the larger Internet ecosystem has risks to ICANN's mission and activities. However, we strongly advise that the impact of many of ICANN's engagement activities is neither well understood, well documented, nor subject to the discipline of reliable metrics and performance measurement.
