> *1. Consent Agenda*
>
>    - Council confirmed Osvado Novoa as GNSO Council Liaison to the
>    Transfers Policy Review.
>    - Council approved the appointment of Arinola Akinyemi as a Mentor for
>    the ICANN Fellowship Program.
>
> *2. Subsequent Procedures Operational Design Assessment (SubPro ODA)*
>
>    - Council's Small Team on SubPro ODA *(in which I also participated)* -
>    which was tasked with reviewing the SubPro ODA in detail, concentrating on
>    identifying areas of ICANN org analysis that may not be true to the intent
>    of the SubPro Final Report, as well as developing impressions of Option 2
>    contained in that ODA - produced input which formed/resulted in the letter
>    of 20 Jan
>    <https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2023/correspondence/ducos-to-sinha-20jan23-en.pdf> from
>    the GNSO Chair to the ICANN Board Chair.
>    - Essentially, Council is urging to the Board to approve the SubPro
>    Outputs (i.e. the recommendations and implementation guidance that were
>    approved by Council) and proceed swiftly with implementation. Despite some
>    misgivings in the assumptions made by ICANN Org in producing the SubPro
>    ODA, Council thinks that any outstanding implementation issues raised in
>    the ODA by ICANN Org can be resolved during implementation in collaboration
>    with the (to-be established) Subsequent Procedures Implementation Review
>    Team (SubPro IRT).
>
> *Action by ALAC Liaison*: To monitor and share updates regarding the
> SubPro IRT with ALAC
>
> *3. GNSO Council Work related to Subsequent Procedures (SubPro)*
>
>    - During Council's Strategic Planning Session (SPS) (in which I do not
>    participate), it was concluded that Council should take care to ensure that
>    any SubPro related work within its control should be carefully managed for
>    timely delivery. *The Council does not want its work to serve as an
>    impediment to the timely implementation and launch of the next round of new
>    gTLDs*, In line with this, Council is to receive frequent updates on
>    the work that is connected to the next round of new gTLDs, including:
>       - IDNs EPDP Phase 1 (top-level charter questions)
>       - GNSO Guidance Process on Applicant Support
>       - Closed Generics Facilitated Discussion
>
> *Action by ALAC Liaison*: To monitor and share updates regarding the
> above processes with ALAC
>
> *4. Transfer Policy Review Policy Development Process (PDP)*
>
>    - Work by this 2-phased PDP has been progressing steadily, with its Phase
>    1A Initial Report
>    <https://www.icann.org/en/public-comment/proceeding/initial-report-on-the-transfer-policy-review-21-06-2022> having
>    undergone public comment and impending completion of revisions to
>    preliminary recommendations from that Initial Report.
>    - In the course of Phase 1 work conducted to date, the WG discovered
>    that certain Phase 2 topics must be addressed before Phase 1
>    recommendations can be fully developed. As a result, Council has been
>    alerted to an upcoming a Project Change Request (PCR) to update its work
>    plan to consolidate all work into a single phase and change the order in
>    which topics are considered. This will impact the timeline for key
>    deliverables.
>
> *5. Council Committee for Overseeing and Implementing Continuous
> Improvements (CCOICI)*
>
>    - By way of background, the work of the CCOICI (a GNSO pilot) covers 2
>    areas of focus: (1) GNSO Working Group Self-Assessment (WGSA) and (2) GNSO
>    Statement of Interest (GNSO SOI)
>    - The agenda item on the WGSA was deferred to Council's Feb 2023
>    meeting, but in the interim, I can confirm that action has been taken
>    to incorporate the ALAC's input
>    <https://atlarge.icann.org/advice_statements/13863> in respect of the
>    existing WGSA survey.
>
> *Action by ALAC Liaison*: To monitor and share updates regarding the GNSO
> SOI with ALAC
>
> Thanks for reading / your consideration.
