CWG-Stewardship also met during the course of ICANN54 and discussed this role
and we continued this discussion in a subsequent meeting on Thursday 5 November
2015. An oversight role is not specifically detailed in our Charter, but it is
the CWG-Stewardship’s view that our role in implementation is to ensure that the
implementation is consistent with the CWG-Stewardship Final Proposal and
furthermore, to provide input on the implementation work when required by staff
working on the implementation or, if and when necessary, to bring the
implementation work back in line with the intent of the Final Proposal.

style='FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: arial; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi'>In
our view, the most logical option is to have the CWG-Stewardship working group
continue in its current form and with the responsibility to monitor the
implementation and provide input where needed. Of course, this responsibility
would include regular updates to the Chartering Organizations via the appointed
members as well as consultations with the Chartering Organizations should issues
be identified that are deemed without this specific remit.

note here for your information, that while the CWG-Stewardship Final Proposal
was submitted in June 2015, the CWG-Stewardship has remained active and
therefore available when needed. This has included being available to answer
questions from the ICG, or to monitor the CCWG-Accountability dependencies and
to coordinate with the other operational communities on shared issues such as
IANA intellectual property rights. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

the CWG-Stewardship Charter does not specifically address implementation, we
would like to ensure that the CWG-Stewardship’s proposed approach in relation to
implementation is not inconsistent with the intent of the Chartering

propose to proceed to oversee the implementation work as described above unless
there are objections from one or more Chartering Organizations.
