[Public-Experts] Latest Version of Charter for the Accountability CCWG Drafting Team

[Grace Abuhamad]

Dear Public Experts,

The Drafting Team for the Accountability CCWG is targeting a delivery date
for the Charter of 3 November. The notes and recording for their latest
meeting are available here: https://community.icann.org/x/dirxAg. The latest
version of the Draft Charter is attached. It's also available on their Wiki
here 
<https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/49359098/Enhancing%20ICANN
%20Accountability%20Draft%20Charter%20-%20Updated%2027%20October%202014.docx
?api=v2> . 

There is a section on page 5 of the Charter that addresses Expert Advisors.
I've copied it here below for your convenience:


In addition to input from the community, the CCWG is expected to solicit and
consider the input from the up to seven advisors selected by the Public
Experts Group (PEG) to provide independent advice, research and identify
best practices, at an early stage of its deliberations. In addition to input
that is specifically solicited by the CCWG, the CCWG is also expected to
give due consideration to any additional advice or input that the advisors
provide as part of the CCWG deliberations. The advisors are expected to
contribute to the dialogue similar to other CCWG participants. However,
should there be a need for any consensus call(s), the advisors would not
participate in such a call.
 
In addition to the advisors selected by the PEG, the CCWG may also identify
additional advisors or experts to contribute to its deliberations in a
similar manner as the advisors selected by the PEG. Should additional costs
be involved in obtaining input from additional advisors or experts, prior
approval must be obtained from ICANN. Such a request for approval should at
a minimum include the rationale for selecting additional advisors or experts
as well as expected costs.

The CCWG should integrate one Accountability and Transparency Review Team
(ATRT) past participant to bring perspective and avoid duplication of work.
Should there be an issue of a consensus call, the ATRT Expert would not
participate in such a consensus call (unless the ATRT Expert is also
selected as a member by one of the chartering organizations).


The DT has its 3rd meeting on Thursday at 13:00 UTC. If you have any notes
or comments to provide to the DT prior to their meeting, please let me know
and I can put you in contact with the Chairs (Thomas Rickert and Mathieu
Weill) and/or forward your note the DT mailing list.

Best, 
Grace
