Entered contact information data are verified, in accordance with the aforementioned Policies and Agreements and the language/script used must be easily identifiable.

As the substance of the Final Report on that particular issue makes it clear that "validation" was intended to be used instead of “verification”. Both  co-Chairs agree that this is a clerical mistake as the Group meant to use the term ‘validate’ not ‘verifiy’ and it should be changed accordingly.

In order to prevent delaying the GNSO Council’s vote on our Final Report, this would have to happen as soon as possible so that the Motion to adopt can be changed accordingly and in time for Wednesday’s Council discussion and vote.
