Thanks, Marika. I have some suggested edits, which are stylistic and not substantive:

Redline:

Recognizing that in the cases of some existing registrations, there may be an Administrative Contact but no Registered Name Holder or any other contact, the EPDP Team recommends that, prior to in eliminating the collection and maintenance of the current Aadministrative Ccontact field, the Registrar MUST ensure that each registration will contain the name and contact information of some contact., e.g., the Registered Name Holder. This will need to happen before the administrative contact is eliminated.

Clean:

Best wishes,

If that investigation (if it is even possible given the data that ICANN possesses) we to show that there are a substantive number of such registrations, what could they do? We know that registrars have resisted the requirement to take corrective action on registration (which is why the validation/verification requirements in the 2013 RAA only apply when there are changes).

If the former, is Contractual Compliance taking any action to ensure that registrars fulfill this obligation?

However, registrars may be required to update existing contact information for 2009 RAA registrations when there is a triggering event under the 2013 RAA that may require them to do so (e.g., the domain name is an inbound transfer, the registrant changes, there is information to suggest the current contact information is incorrect).

In order to ensure this issue is not overlooked during the implementation phase, would it be helpful to add a sentence along the following lines in the implementation part of the report: “As part of the implementation, consideration needs toto be given to the potential impact of these policy recommendations on legacy registrations that without additional mitigation could end up with no contact information if the administrative contact is the only information currently available (this could be the case for a limited number of registrations that are still under the 2009 Registrar Accreditation Agreement)”?
