 Hello Marika,

this note. 

 Thank you,

  Dear Larry,
 I hope this e-mail finds you well.

 A GNSO Councillor pointed out to me that the statements made by some groups
in the GNSO have not been referenced to in the letter from the Board to
NTIA. I have therefore included our letter to the ICANN Board in this e-mail
below. This letter includes links to the responses we got from the
Chartering Organizations and those include links to the statements. I would
add that there is an expectation from those that made the statements that
these will be passed on to Congress with the proposal.

 May I kindly ask you to confirm receipt of this message?

 Thank you and kind regards,
 Thomas

Dr. Stephen Crocker, Chair

ICANN Board of Directors

Dear ICANN Board of Directors,

Following the submission on the Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing
ICANN Accountability (CCWG-Accountability) Work Stream 1 Report to its
Chartering Organizations on 23 February 2016, we are pleased to announce
that transmittal of the report has been approved by all six organizations.
Each of the Chartering Organizationsâ€™ approval and statement is recorded
as follows, in order received:

* Security and Stability Advisory Committee
<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/2016-March/011
606.html>  (SSAC) 
* Address Supporting Organization
<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/2016-March/011
639.html>  (ASO) 
* At-Large Advisory Committee
<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/2016-March/011
658.html>  (ALAC) 
* Governmental Advisory Committee
<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/2016-March/011
676.html>  (GAC) 
* Generic Names Supporting Organization
<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/2016-March/011
694.html>  (GNSO) 
* Country Codes Names Supporting Organisation
<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/2016-March/011
697.html>  (ccNSO)[1] <x-msg://160/#_ftn1>

In addition, the CWG-Stewardship certified
<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/accountability-cross-community/2016-February/
011509.html>  that the CCWG-Accountability has met the dependencies on which
their proposal was expressly conditioned, thus allowing the IANA Stewardship
Transition (as a whole) to proceed.

The report is the result of extensive work by the CCWG-Accountabilityâ€™s 28
members, 175 participants and a team of highly qualified legal advisors
since December 2014, which included over 221 calls or meetings, 3 public
consultations and more than 13,900 email messages. It represents a carefully
crafted balance between key requirements, specific legal advice, and
significant compromises by all who participated and includes diligent
attention to the input received through the Public Comment proceedings.
Prior to submitting to the Chartering Organizations for their approval, the
Work Stream 1 Report received the consensus support within the
CCWG-Accountability itself, with five minority statements recorded in
Appendix A of our Report, and available here
<https://community.icann.org/x/0ReAAw> .

With the sign off by the Chartering Organizations of this report, the
CCWG-Accountability is pleased to transmit this report to the Board as part
of the IANA Stewardship Transition process. We are available to you in order
to answer any questions you may have and to explain any details of the
proposal. For your information, comprehensive further background documents
and reference materials are available here
<https://community.icann.org/x/ogDxAg> .

Thomas, Mathieu, and Leon

CCWG-Accountability  Co-Chairs

[1] <x-msg://160/#_ftnref1>  In  accordance to the rules of the ccNSO (
<http://ccnso.icann.org/about/ccnso-rules-dec04-en.pdf>
<http://ccnso.icann.org/about/ccnso-rules-dec04-en.pdf>
http://ccnso.icann.org/about/ccnso-rules-dec04-en.pdf), the decisions in
this resolution will become effective seven days after publication of these
decisions by the Council. For the interim, the chair of the ccNSO is
requested to inform the ICANN Board of the decision of the ccNSO Council
under the assumption the decision is effective and subsequently, after seven
(7) days, whether these decision has become effective.
