[ECAdmin] Secretary's Notice to Empowered Community of Board Approval of FY20 Operating Plan and Budget and Secretary's Notice to Empowered Community of Board Approval of Updates to Five Year Operating Plan 2020

[Stephen Deerhake @ ASNIC]

Greetings Peg,

On behalf of the Empowered Community Administration, I thank you for providing us with the ICANN Corporate Secretary’s formal notification of the recent ICANN Board action with respect to their adoption of the FY20 Operating Plan and Budget and their adoption of the Updates to the Five Year Operating Plan 2020, thus initiating a Rejection Action Petition Period per Annex D, Section2.2(a) of the ICANN Bylaws.

However, on behalf of the Empowered Community Administration, I also note that this formal notification from the ICANN Secretary is deficient with respect to ICANN’s obligations under Section 22.4(a)(v) of the ICANN Bylaws, which require that “…the Secretary shall provide a Board Notice to the EC Administration and the Decisional Participants , which Board Notice shall enclose a copy of the Operating Plan that is the subject of the Operating Plan Approval.” (https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article22).

For the record, the Empowered Community Administration was NOT provided in the notification email to which I am responding with a “…copy of the Operating Plan that is the subject of the Operating Plan Approval”, as specified under Section 22.4(a)(v) of the ICANN Bylaws.

Also for the record, and again on behalf of the Empowered Community Administration, this will not be a hinderance to our acceptance of the formal notification with regards to the ICANN Board’s adoption of the FY20 Operating Plan and Budget, as well as their adoption of the Updates to the Five Year Operating Plan 2020.

However, going forward, the Empowered Community Administration expects that ICANN will fully comply with their obligations with respect to Empowered Community Administration notification as expressed in Section 22.4(a)(v) of the ICANN Bylaws.


Best Regards,
Stephen Deehake
ccNSO representative to the Empowered Community Administration
