<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The Phase 1 recommendation is a three-part recommendation. The answer needs to be that the EPDP Team cannot resolve and determine the legal v. natural issue based on the information received at
this time – this accurately explains what the Team has been done.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">It is a well-known fact that if there is no consensus, there is no policy. The only thing coming out of Phase 1 is that CPs would be allowed but not required to differentiate. Need to accept the
fact that we cannot come to agreement on this and move on. Proposed change to wording: The EPDP Team could not reach a consensus to change the recommendation, therefore no change will be made.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The recommendation being discussed now is a response to instruction (i) from the Council: whether any updates are required (“Registrars and Registry Operators are permitted to differentiate between
registrations of legal and natural persons, but are not obligated to do so”. It does not make sense to have a recommendation that does not make a recommendation.

<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The instructions from the Council were not within the Charter, so the Team is still perfectly in its charter to resolve the legal v. natural issue. Would like to specifically add – the team cannot

<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Registrar Team understands that ICANN already tracks legislative developments – do not think the GNSO Council should have its purview expanded in this way. ICANN org should continue to monitor
and relevant changes could be flagged to the community. <o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Need to consider whether this is an ICANN org function that is already being carried out – this may be above and beyond the remit of the GNSO Council.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">ICANN org has a role in tracking legislative and regulatory developments around the world. With the advent of GDPR, it became clear that early warning of regulatory developments that may affect
global policy is important – ICANN org clearly has a role. A possible recommendation could be that the Council engage with or check in with ICANN org on the monitoring of these developments. There could be future developments.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The language in NIS2 is relevant to this Team’s work – it creates a stronger legal basis for that this group is doing in policy development. The recommendation should not be monitored – the language
should be that the EPDP Team be reengaged when the NIS2 is adopted. <o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Is there a trigger or date the team should be considering? There is no downside in communicating to the Council or community that there could be future regulatory (or otherwise) impacts that need
to be considered. <o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">There is no harm in giving a reminder, but that does not mean a recommendation is necessary for this.
<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The only reason these recommendations are showing up now is to immediately implement laws that curb the impact of the GDPR. Cannot start introducing deliberations in the GNSO Council the laws that
certain stakeholders like and ignore others. <o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The downside to this prelim. rec is that this process is being prolonged unnecessarily and allowing groups that were unhappy with the results to try to keep it going. Maybe these groups will be
successful in pressuring the EC to get what they want. If a new law comes along that requires a change in ICANN policy, then the GNSO will start a new policy process. Need to be very concerned with efforts that allow other groups to regulate what ICANN does
and tilt the scales of the multi-stakeholder process.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">This recommendation does not keep the EPDP2A work open, alive, or in a stand-by mode. EPDP2A effort will conclude, but based on the conversations had over the last few months, there are potential
regulatory impacts to these conversations, and an acknowledgement of that to the Council is not out of bounds.

<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">NIS2 is very specific to this work, so this should be specifically called out – propose restarting EPDP once NIS2 is adopted b/c would not want to start all over again<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="color:black;margin-left:38.7pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo1">

<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">This will depend on how the Council and Board treat the recommendations. Generally, the Council will pass on the whole set of recommendations, and generally the Board will vote on the whole set
of recommendations. If a recommendation is directed to the Council, the Council will be expected to deal with this. A recommendation of this nature will not result in future implementation directed to ICANN org.
