[Gnso-igo-ingo] Revisions required to the Table of National Red Cross and Red Crescent names and identifiers

[Stephane Hankins]

Dear Berry, dear Members of the Core Group,

I hope this message finds you well.

(1) We wish to inform you herewith of several revisions to be brought to 
the table of National Red Cross and Red Crescent Society identifiers we 
have submitted, and thus, in order to reflect the recent change in the 
name of the “Baphalali Swaziland Red Cross Society” to “Baphalali Eswatini 
Red Cross Society”.

This change in the official name of the Swaziland Red Cross follows the 
decision by the King and Head of State of Swaziland adopted in April 2018 
to change the official name of the country to Kingdom of eSwatini (it is 
my understanding that this change is already reflected in the list of 
States members of ICANN’s 
Government Advisory Committee). 

The change of the official name of the “Baphalali Swaziland Red Cross 
Society” was confirmed by decision of the National Society’s General 
Assembly of 8 September 2018.

Given that the change of name of the National Society in legal documents 
(including in the Baphalali eSwatini Red Cross Society’s legislation of 
recognition) will not be immediately effective, we recommend to keep the 
list of names in the table unchanged and to add thereto an additional set 
of identifiers including the new name “eSwatini”.

Please find attached herewith consequently a revised list of names for the 
Baphalali Eswatini Red Cross Society. We could also submit a revised 
version of the global table if this is easier.

(2) We also wish to take this opportunity to ask you when the Board report 
and the GNSO's recommendations on the red cross and red crescent 
identifiers are due for consideration by ICANN’s Board.

With best wishes to all in 2019 and kind regards, 
Stéphane

Subject: [Gnso-igo-ingo] Reconvened WG Resolution Adopted
 
Hi All,
The GNSO Council adopted all of the Reconvened WG recommendations.  The 
motion carried unanimously. 
https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20180927-3 
Staff will prepare a Board report and an additional public comment will be 
opened before the Board considers the GNSO recommendations.  I suspect 
there will be brief updates by the GNSO and GAC about this milestone, but 
it is likely the Board will not consider this until at least December 2018 
or early 2019.  After which, the IRT will begin the implementation phase.
Thank you.
