<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">Below is a
draft of the email I propose to send to Rob Hoggarth in response to the action
point I was given during our recent conference call. It explains the ISPCP
approach to the provision of the GNSO toolkit, following the discussion we had
with Rob in Dakar and our last conference call.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">Please let

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">The ISPCP
Constituency very much appreciated the opportunity to discuss our requirements
from the GNSO toolkit with you during the Dakar meeting. We have since held an
ISPCP conference call reflecting on those discussions and consider it would be
helpful to forward a brief note summarising the current situation and our
requirements.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">The ISPCP
greatly appreciate the work undertaken within the GNSO and by staff which has
resulted in the establishment of the toolkit. When fully available its
comprehensive menu should ensure all involved parties have the ability to
participate in the policy development process and represent their stakeholder
groups in an effective and efficient manner. As recognised during our
discussions we have not quite reached that stage, but we are all aware that
the level of commitment required from volunteer members who form ICANNs GNSO
Constituencies has greatly increased, along with the scope and pace of policy
development. Handling that situation in an environment where participation has
to be carefully weighed against other demands placed on participants by the
organisations they represent is in itself, a considerable
challenge.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=Default><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Against that
background the ISPCP and other Constituencies have already benefitted from
using some elements of the toolkit. In particular the ISPCP have been very
appreciative of the support given to organising its meetings, organising
conference calls and assistance in conducting elections for Constituency
officers. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=Default><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><o:p> </o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=Default><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">However as
discussed in Dakar some of the elements that would make a considerable
difference to our Constituency are not readily available, in particular,
</SPAN><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Constituency web
site hosting and content maintenance and the provision of grants/funding for
constituencies to assist us in providing their own support</SPAN><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">. </SPAN><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'; FONT-SIZE: 11pt">We are also aware
that no firm timeline currently exists for the provision of those tools. On
that basis the ISPCP would like to request that a budget allocation is made
available to assist in bridging that gap. It is accepted that any funds made
available should only be used for the specified purpose and meet in full the
requirements for transparency, accountability and audit
control.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

budget implications this email has also been copied to Xavier Calvez Chief
Financial officer.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
