<span lang="EN-US" 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

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 lang="EN-US" 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">

are potential regulatory impacts to these conversations, and an acknowledgement of that to the Council is not out of bounds.
