<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">Thanks David.&nbsp; This is exactly why we cannot use the Ruggie definition of “respect”.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Again, it is difficult for me to see how Ruggie applies since those
 principles are developed in relation to a corporation that operates “top down” rather than “bottom up” and were not developed in relation to the unique MS policy development framework that applies to ICANN.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">The Ruggie definition of “respect” would require ICANN action in the context of evaluating and minimizing &nbsp;Human Rights adverse impact in
<u>all its business relationships</u>.&nbsp; <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">ICANN’s primary business relationships are registry contracts.&nbsp; This includes award and renewal of gTLD contracts&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;(As a side note, and also noting my bias
 as an IP lawyer in favor of &nbsp;the protection of trademark and copyright, &nbsp;the UDRP and URS processes are not “business relationships” of ICANN. ) These are dispute resolution processes developed through a bottom-up MS approach – again a concept that is completely
 foreign to businesses for which Ruggie principles were developed.&nbsp; <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">So from my point of view, Ruggie is inapposite and we need to “start from scratch” so that the FOI being developed recognizes the existing ICANN MS Model and
 the existing policy development process and functions of policy advice coming from the GAC and ALAC and other entities in addition to the GNSO.&nbsp; This is definitely a “balancing act” of Core Values for the Community and the Board.&nbsp; Any Human Rights FOI that
 does not EXPLICITLY recognize the MS Model of policy development is inadequate.&nbsp;

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">I would therefore suggest a preamble to the FOI along the following lines:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p>Dear Daniel,<br>
<br>
I would rather disagree with broadening the view that much. <br>
<br>
First of all, there are other documents from CCWG than define the tasks of this group, than only the bylaw text. In particular, Annex 06 (p. 2) of the CCWG-Accountability Supplemental Final Proposal on Work Stream 1 Recommendations report, that was approved,
 says: <br>
<br>
&quot;Include the following in Work Stream 2 activities:<br>
- Develop an <u>FOI-HR for the Human Rights Bylaw</u>&quot; (underlined by me). <br>
<br>
The drafters of the CCWG report could have been of course more specific and put the wording &quot;FoI for the HR Bylaw&quot; everywhere, but I think it actually never dawned on them that there will be a discussion on broadening the scope of the FoI that much. At least
 the wording of the Annex 6 (and Annex 12 about WS2) indicates that it's a FoI for bylaw and not for the whole human rights impact assessment (HRIA) within ICANN.
<br>
<br>
Secondly, even a mere interpretation of the bylaw will require a lot of analysis of what you refer to, but extending the work of this group to the whole HRIA is outside of our mandate I think. There was a report of the Cross-community working party for human
 rights (which is not the part of the work of this CCWG) prepared for the ICANN meeting in Dublin that actually showed that the full HRIA, though might be a desirable option, is a time- and resources-consuming process and might be recommended only in a long-term.
 We can of course consider recommending ICANN to carry out a HRIA as a part of the FoI, why not, but doing the whole assessment on our own, in this group, rather looks like an impossible task - both in terms of resources and mandate.
<br>
<br>
I think the work of this group should definitely focus on the bylaw interpretation at the moment, because we do have to agree on what the bylaw means first before we will make any further recommendations.<br>
<br>
warm regards<br>
Tatiana <o:p></o:p></p>

 as to various business activities.&nbsp;&nbsp; The criteria for a Human Rights Impact Statement might be a starting point.&nbsp; However, in developing such a Human Rights Impact evaluation, and as agreed in WS1, we cannot focus on just one or two or three of the relevant
 Human Rights.&nbsp; None of the Human Rights documents we refer to rank these rights in order of priority as far as I know.&nbsp; The rights of authors and indigenous peoples I represent are just as important as the rights of freedom of expression and privacy.&nbsp; In fact,
 author’s rights (including the copyright rights which give the authors the exclusive right to make changes to their own works) may be equally important to condemning oppressive governmental action or exploitation of native culture for corporate or personal
