[council] Travel policy draft and other comments

[Philip Sheppard]

Alternate motion for today:
Proposed Philip Sheppard
Seconded Stephane Van Gelder


Whereas:
Council welcomes the fact that ICANN have allocated some funds for GNSO travel.

1. Council regrets that the current proposal imposes administrative difficulty and may thus
reduce the total budget available.

2. Council calls upon ICANN staff to nominate by 15 January 2009 a fixed sum for fiscal year
2009  that will be granted to each of the constituencies currently recognised under the
ICANN by-laws of 29 May 2008. Such sum should exclude any budget to cover the costs of nom
com delegates or GNSO chair
travel.

3. Council requests Constituencies to publish the names of all those who receive travel
support together with a list of the relevant meeting(s) for which the support was given and
which were attended by the support recipient.
