Dear all,

The Co-Chairs have considered the question from the Human Rights
sub-group regarding the scope of its mandate with respect ot WS2.

The Co-Chairs will note that although there may be some ambiguity in
interpreting the WS2 requirements for the Human Rights sub-group between
Annex 6 and Annex 12 of its WS1 recommendations that this should not be
surprising given the timeline we were working under for WS1. The
Co-Chairs will note that all the other sub-groups are referring to Annex
12 to define the scope of their work and that it would make sense from a
consistency point of view that the Human Rights sub-group do so also.

The Co-Chairs further note that some of the "considerations" requested
of the Human Rights sub-group seem rather open ended such as “Consider
how the interpretation and implementation of this Bylaw will interact
with existing and future ICANN policies and procedures.”. Although this
would certainly be an interesting intellectual exercise it is unclear
how long it would take to complete this or what effect it could actually
have on the FOI that has been produced.

Considering these and other factors the Co-Chairs would recommend that
the Human Rights sub-group confirm that it has completed developing the
Human Rights FOI per Annex 12 of the CCWG-Accountability WS1
Recommendations.

Should the sub-group feel that it should develop suggestions for ICANN
implementing the HR FOI based on its work to date the Co-Chairs would be
amenable to this and would invite the HR sub-group to submit any such
suggestions to the plenary for consideration by early May 2017, if there
was no objection from the plenary.

Best regards,


Thomas, Mathieu and León
