Questioning the recommendation of having the head of compliance report to a
Board Committee. That is moving the Board into a management functions,
which is not only very odd, but completely inefficient. If the WHOIS RT
does not trust management to be able to do their job, then that should be in
their recommendations (i.e., get better management). But having a board
committee oversee employees is unprecedented (given it is a volunteer board)
and would cause incredible delays.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

The Registries strongly believe that it is ONLY through the PDP process that
ICANN can initiate processes to regulate and oversee privacy and proxy serve
providers. This is opposite to Brian’s draft #10. So, we believe
all of Recommendation 10 does in fact need a PDP without any time constraints
as Brian’s draft indicates.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

you are aware, the WHOIS Review Team’s scope, guided by the Affirmation of
Commitments, was to review the extent to which ICANN’s WHOIS policy and its
implementation are effective, meet legitimate needs of law enforcement and
promote consumer trust. To this end, the Final Report, which issued on
11 May 2012, contained sixteen recommendations.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

its meeting on 20 July 2012, the GNSO Council considered the substance of
the WHOIS Review Team Final Report, as well as how to respond to the Board’s
request. The GNSO Council recognizes, given the hard work and public
input already incorporated into the Final Report, that there is a reasonable
expectation by the Review Team for its recommendations be implemented as
soon as practicable. However, the GNSO Council also recognizes that a
small number of the Review Team’s recommendations may require future GNSO
policy development. Accordingly, the written input this letter is
intended to clarify potential ambiguity and assist the Board in determining
which Review Team recommendations are matters of GNSO policy development
versus which recommendations are matters of staff implementation or
negotiation with contracted parties.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

The Review Team’s second recommendation calls for the Board to oversee
creation of a single WHOIS policy document, and reference it in agreements
with Contracted Parties, as well as clearly document the current gTLD WHOIS
policy as set out in the gTLD Registry & Registrar contracts &
Consensus Policies and Procedure. </SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

GNSO Council notes that this recommendation carefully avoids the phrase

set forth in the contracts and consensus policies. It does not ask for
the GNSO council to review or develop any policies. Accordingly, the
GNSO Council believes that this is not a recommendation for further GNSO
policy development.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

The Review Team’s third recommendation calls for ICANN to ensure that WHOIS
policy issues are accompanied by cross-community outreach, including
outreach to the communities outside of ICANN with a specific interest in the
issues, and an ongoing program for consumer
awareness.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

The Review Team’s tenth recommendation essentially calls for ICANN to
initiate processes to regulate and oversee privacy and proxy service
providers; processes should be developed in consultation with all interested
stakeholders and note relevant GNSO studies; a possible approach to
achieving this would be to establish an accreditation system for all
proxy/privacy service providers, and consider the merits (if any) of
establishing or maintaining a distinction between privacy and proxy
services; goal is to provide clear, consistent and enforceable requirements
for the operation of these services consistent with national laws, and to
strike an appropriate balance between stakeholders with competing but
legitimate interests—including privacy, data protection, law enforcement,
the industry around law enforcement and the human rights
community.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN

GNSO Council acknowledges that this recommendation can be read to describe a
GNSO policy development process. However, in recognition of the
contemporaneous negotiation of the RAA, the GNSO Council recommends
that—notwithstanding any GNSO policy development process on this
recommendation—ICANN retain its authority to unilaterally impose regulation
of privacy and proxy services pursuant to the RAA in the event that no
consensus policy has been reached in a reasonably time frame, such as twelve
months from 31 August 2012.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

The Review Team’s twelfth recommendation calls for ICANN to task a working
group within six months of publication of their report, to determine
appropriate internationalized domain name registration data requirements and
evaluate available solutions; at a minimum, the data requirements should
apply to all new gTLDs, and the working group should consider ways to
encourage consistency of approach across the gTLD and (on a voluntary basis)
ccTLD space; the working group should report within a
year.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>
