Dear colleagues,
 
This mail is to confirm our next call and to suggest an agenda.
 
The call of the IOO DT will be a single topic:

And the consequences for our work and our team.
 
The items will be
·     Roll Call / Apologies ­ Welcome ­ Opening Remarks

·     Discussion with procurement staff

·     Discussion with ³reviews² staff

·     How to organize our team?

Please find the draft letter (I don¹t have the final one) of the ccwg-WS2
legal team that will trigger our discussion with ICANN legal staff.
 
³ICANN Legal,
 
Request for an opinion from CCWG-Accountability WS2:
Background: 
The CCWG-Accountability WS2 Ombusman sub-group is working on recommending
possible changes to the Office of the Ombudsman as required in the final
report for WS1 of the CCWG-Accountability.
 
Given the focus of this sub-group the group working on implementing ATRT2
recommendations, which includes a requirement for an external review of the
office of the Ombudsman, has proposed that the CCWG-Accountability WS2
Ombudsman sub-group take on the responsibility for this evaluation which it
has accepted to do with the agreement of the ccwg-WS2 plenary.
 
The current ICANN Ombudsman Herb Waye and his predecessor are both members
of the Ombudsman sub-group drafting team.
 
Question:
Is the current ICANN Ombusman (and his predecessor) placing himself
(themselves) in a conflict of interest by participating in the sub-group
which will have responsibility for the external review of the Office of the
Ombudsman? If so what should the Ombudsman do to avoid such a conflict
(completely recuse himself from all aspects or only from making or approving
recommendations)?
 
Leon Sanchez
CCWG-Accountability Co-Chair.²


Talk to you soon
All the best
SeB
