HR-based claims will almost inevitably wind up in front of the soon-to-be-constituted IRP panel. These (at least) seven new panelists will be drawn from legal circles independent of ICANN. There is simply no way to envision how they would interpret reference to the UNGP and no guarantee that this new precedent-setting body might not try to stretch ICANN’s mission to accommodate the UNGP. They will receive training on the DNS but we have no idea whether or to what extent they might appreciate ICANN’s unique mission, especially at the outset of their work where they will nevertheless have the power to set precedent. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>In its eloquent public comment, the government of the UK remarked that absent a stronger reference to UNGP the ICANN community would effectively miss an opportunity “to be a global transnational beacon for advancing corporate respect for human rights.” <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>I respectfully disagree, thinking that ICANN has embraced that opportunity by explicitly adopting a core value aimed at respecting HR.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Given ICANN’s unique mission (and potential damage from mission-creep), its open and participatory community, and the newness of the IRP panel to come, there appears to be no demonstrable need to make reference to the UNGP at present, but downside-risk does seem possible. If the community in the future discerns that such a need has subsequently arisen, then steps can be taken at that time to consider such a reference as appropriately tailored to take account of ICANN’s uniqueness. By that time, presumably, the IRP panel will have taken shape and have become a little more predictable than it is at the moment.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>David<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>David McAuley<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Sr International Policy & Business Development Manager<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Verisign Inc.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><a href="tel:(703)%20948-4154" target="_blank">703-948-4154</a><o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><b>From:</b> <a href="mailto:ws2-hr-bounces@icann.org" target="_blank">ws2-hr-bounces@icann.org</a> [mailto:<a href="mailto:ws2-hr-bounces@icann.org" target="_blank">ws2-hr-bounces@icann.org</a>] <b>On Behalf Of </b><a href="mailto:Jorge.Cancio@bakom.admin.ch" target="_blank">Jorge.Cancio@bakom.admin.ch</a><br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, September 18, 2017 5:46 AM<br><b>To:</b> <a href="mailto:ws2-hr@icann.org" target="_blank">ws2-hr@icann.org</a><br><b>Subject:</b> [EXTERNAL] [Ws2-hr] WG: dissenting opinion - final-final text for CCWG<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#1F497D'>For your information</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#1F497D'>Kind regards</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#1F497D'>Jorge </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><b><span lang=DE>Von:</span></b><span lang=DE> Cancio Jorge BAKOM <br><b>Gesendet:</b> Montag, 18.
