Dear Councilors,

Please find attached for your consideration the Final Issue Report on New
gTLD Subsequent Procedures, which is also available here:
http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/new-gtlds/subsequent-procedures-final-issue-
04dec15-en.pdf. You may recall that the Council requested an Issue Report on
the topic at the Buenos Aires meeting in June 2015. Under the ICANN Bylaws,
an Issue Report is a mandatory preceding step to a possible PDP that is
initiated by the GNSO Council. The Preliminary Issue Report was published
for public comment on 31 August 2015, with the forum closing on 30 October
2015. The Report of Public Comments received is expected to be published on
4 December 2015 and made available here:
https://www.icann.org/public-comments/new-gtld-subsequent-prelim-2015-08-31-
en. 

In preparing this Final Issue Report, all the public comments received were
analyzed and, where relevant, incorporated into the Final Issue Report. The
Report of Public Comments has also been added as a separate Annex.

The staff recommendation is that the Council initiate a PDP to consider and
analyze issues discussed in the Final Issue Report on New gTLD Subsequent
Procedures to determine whether changes or adjustments to the existing
policy recommendations in the Final Report on the Introduction of New
Generic Top-Level Domains are needed.  The outcome of the PDP may lead to
(i) amending or overriding existing policy principles, recommendations, and
implementation guidelines; (ii) developing new policy recommendations,
and/or (iii) supplementing or developing new implementation guidance.

The relevant motions are currently in preparation for proposal by a GNSO
Councilor.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Best,



Steven Chan
Sr. Policy Manager
