Dear All,
We have discussed at length the text of this Recommandation which is
currently drafted as follows
*Recommendation #3 WHOIS Accuracy – “The EPDP Team recommends that
requirements related to the accuracy of registration data under the current
ICANN contracts and consensus policies shall not be affected by this
policy” *
The lagunage used in this Recommandation  referred to the current ICANN
Contract the "*requirements related to the accuracy of registration data "*in
a defensive (negative )connotation without any  clear référence to GPDR
requirements in Article 5  ( 5d1)
In order to mitigate the case I suggest the following wording
*Recommendation #3 WHOIS Accuracy – “The EPDP Team recommends that
ICANN shall ensure that the  requirements related to the accuracy of
registration data as stipulated in paragraph 5.1d of Article 5 of GDPR are
maintained  *
*This modification is precise, conise and implicitly refers to the **current
ICANN contracts .The concept suggested by Farzaneh during the call and I
slightly amend that to take into account of views expressed after her
suggestion ,in particulier, by Milton after my first draft taking
Farzaneh's suggestion.*
*I do not agree to f seek any legal advice on this issue as this is a
matter that needs to be agreed by us *
*I respectfully request you to consider the matter and ask Kurt to bring it
up at our next meeting .*
*It is disappointing and frustrating that the comments made by two members
are so categorically rejected *
*Regards*
*Kavouss *
