and Jaime Wagner represent the ISPCP on the Council. Jaime was unable to join
the call due to personal circumstances. Wolf-Ulrich provided an overview of the

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB>The ISPCP support the view that this
meeting is required in order for this WG to finalise their work and that funding
attendance of representatives who have been actively engaged in the process is
an appropriate an valid use of ICANN funds. Wolf-Ulrich will draft a motion to

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB>The current proliferation of issues which
require resource (15-18 projects) demands that Council prioritise the work.
Wolf-Ulrich is participating in initial discussions within Council that will
result in an approach being placed before Council for their consideration and
agreement. The ISPCP will be kept aware of progress.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

in March) at the next ISPCP Conference call. It was reiterated that the ISPCP
supports the view that travel funding should be allocated to the Constituencies
and placed under their jurisdiction to utilise in a manner that best meets the
Constituency requirements/representation at ICANN meetings.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
