[council] Motion To Approve Tool Kit of Services Recommendations for GNSO Constituencies and Stakeholder Groups

Chuck and all,

The Board approved GNSO Improvements Report does not require Board approval on all GNSO Improvements-related recommendations, only on the restructuring activities, the new PDP and the Working Group model. No Board approval is required in this case.

Because actual implementation of the toolkit has budgetary implications, the implementation steps for staff to take as we see them are to:  1.  Determine the cost of the services; 2. Determine what funds might be available; 3. Prioritize the list of services; 4. Develop specifications for providing the services; and 5. Notify the GNSO organizations of the services and specifications.

Thanks, Liz

Wolf,

My understanding is that the Board will need to approve the recommendations for implementation. That was the case with regard to the GNSO Restructure recommendations.

Rob/Denise - Am I correct on this?

Chuck

Chuck,

I'd like to second this motion but have one question regarding to the "resolved": does "sharing the recommendations with the board.." mean that there is no further need for board approval? In this case the council might direct staff to execute the recommendations.

Best regards
Wolf-Ulrich

Motion To Approve Tool Kit of Services Recommendations for GNSO Constituencies and Stakeholder Groups

Motion by: Chuck Gomes
Seconded by:

Whereas the Board Governance Committee Report on GNSO Improvements (BGC Report) tasked ICANN staff with developing, within six months, in consultation with the GNSO Council, a “tool kit” of basic services that would be made available to all constituencies.  (See Report of the Board Governance Committee GNSO Review Working Group on GNSO Improvements, 3 February 2008 located at http://www.icann.org/en/topics/gnso-improvements/gnso-improvements-report-03feb08.pdf, p. 46.);

Whereas the ICANN Board approved the BGC GNSO Improvement Recommendations on 26 June 2008 (http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-26jun08.htm#_Toc76113182);

Whereas in January 2009 the GNSO Council formed the Operations Steering Committee (OSC) to develop recommendations to implement operational changes contained in the BGC Report;

Whereas the OSC established three Work Teams, including the GNSO Stakeholder Group and Constituency Operations Work Team, to take on the work of each of the three operational areas addressed in the BGC Report recommendations;

Whereas the GNSO Stakeholder Group and Constituency Operations Work Team developed and approved Tool Kit Services Recommendations for GNSO Constituencies and Stakeholder Groups on 25 October 2009 and sent them to the OSC for review;

Whereas the OSC accepted the Work Team's recommendations;

Whereas on 5 Nov 09 the document was distributed to the Council list and Councilors were asked to forward the recommendations to their respective groups for review and comment ASAP with the tentative goal of Council action in our December meeting;

RESOLVED, the Council accepts the recommendations (http://gnso.icann.org/drafts/tool-kit-services-recommendations-for-gnso-05nov09-en.pdf) and directs Staff to share the recommendations with the Board and post the document on the GNSO web page at http://gnso.icann.org/.
