 operating plan was due to the fact that I couldn’t find any background materials that could be taken as “a detailed and comprehensive plan” as depicted in Rec #15. To my understanding, “a detailed and comprehensive plan” should outline the timeline, deliverables,
 milestones, budget and resources allocation, etc. if there are other materials other than the Action Plan adopted by ICANN Board on 8 November 2012 and ICANN annual operating plan can serve this purpose, I’m happy to have a look and further review them.

 and “Each of these reports should contain all relevant information, including all underlying facts, figures and analyses”. To my understanding, “progress is the process of gradually improving or getting nearer to achieving or completing something”. If there
 is no measurable assessment of outcome/impact of the implementation, just a list of activity reports, how could we determine whether we make progress? Simple questions, is data accuracy getting better today compares to 2012? Does the WHOIS service better meet
 the LEAs’ needs, promote consumer trust than before? I don’t think the review team has the answers to these questions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
