by failing to conduct an HRIA – in other words whether failure to conduct an HRIA constitutes a failure to “respect” Human Rights and separately, if an Expert Report on Human Rights Impact were commissioned, would the Board be subject to an IRP if it did not
follow every recommendation in such a report.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">In my view, the short answer to your questions is that a Human Rights Impact Assessment is not required by applicable law. Thus, the bylaw could not be violated if ICANN did not undertake
a HRIA. If ICANN adopted a policy requiring an HRIA under certain circumstances and then violated that policy, that would still not violate the Bylaw, since applicable law doesn't require an HRIA. So that policy violation would be dealt with in whatever
way a policy (but not a Consensus Policy) violation would be dealt with.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Right now, the HRIA idea is barely sketched out. I'm guessing there are other sources to use a platform for constructing such an assessment, but many choices would need to be made and significant
work done, if an HRIA were to be put on ICANN's plate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

law” is accurate, although it may have been helpful to have more information on the laws that apply due to ICANN’s status as a California non-profit corporation. I do consider that there are laws that apply outside the U.S. to California non-profits who are
doing business abroad, most notably by way of having opened offices in those jurisdictions.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

has no obligation to enforce Human Rights as against third parties. So we still need to determine as a subgroup what this word might require that is short of enforcement. For example, is the Bylaw violated if ICANN does not undertake a Human Rights Impact
Assessment? Who decides the scope of that assessment and how much it should cost? Is the assessment meant to be part of a Human Rights policy development process or is it in the form of an “Expert Report” delivered to the ICANN Board? What happens if the
ICANN Board does not take action based on each recommendation made in such an Expert Report? Is ICANN then subject to administrative and judicial proceedings for failing to do so? Are directors subject to removal for violating the Bylaw? (How are these
risks to be addressed in recommendations coming from our subteam?)</span><o:p></o:p></p>

document we are working on at present refers to this specific Human Rights Impact Assessment tool. Would failure to conduct an HRIA mean that ICANN is failing to respect Human Rights? What if the community disagrees with an Expert HRIA report provided to
the Board on this subject?</span><o:p></o:p></p>

Objection Procedures for new gTLDs and realized that Human Rights is a listed basis for the Limited Public Interest Objection. Thus, when we consider how the new Bylaw and HR-FOI interact with existing ICANN processes, we may need to look specifically at
the Limited Public Interest Objection Procedure.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

Applicable law can have disparate impacts on ICANN around the globe:<br>
for example, if ICANN employs personnel in different jurisdictions<br>
then it must observe the appropriate labour laws in those various<br>
locales. Applicable law is thus a large body of law that eludes our<br>
ability to catalogue, but it is ascertainable in the context of a<br>

any given situation may depend on many factors that cannot be fully anticipated or enumerated. Situations may arise in which perfect fidelity to all Core Values simultaneously is not possible. Accordingly, in any situation where one Core Value must be balanced
with another, potentially competing Core Value, the result of the balancing must serve a policy developed through the bottom-up multistakeholder process or otherwise best serve </span>ICANN<span style="font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#333333;background:white">'s

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">There is not yet a documented process for the balancing of core values, however ICANN continues to refine its practice of producing rationales in support of decisions of the Board
that identify the core values guiding a particular decision. Community groups producing recommendations for the Board to consider are also encouraged to begin documenting the core values supporting their recommendations. It is important to note that many
of the items identified under the revised core values section are well integrated across all of ICANN’s work today, for example, the recognition of where ICANN’s policy roles start and stop; and seeking and supporting diverse participation in policy development
at ICANN. As set out in the Bylaws, ICANN is always striving to achieve a reasonable balance between the interests of different stakeholders, which could impact how competition in the registration of domain names is introduced and promoted, for example.
As discussed above, the balancing test cannot be used to support an outcome in violation of applicable laws.<o:p></o:p></p>
