[Gnso-newgtld-wg] Proposed agenda - New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP WG - 12 June 2018 at 03:00 UTC

Mon Jun 11 23:02:54 UTC 2018

Regarding Section 1.3.2(b) of Foundational Issues, the following draft from the Initial Report seems a bit biased to me, especially as to the paraphrasing of the GAC Advice in the highlighted language:

In October 2012, the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC)
provided advice to the ICANN Board of Directors of ICANN that it should come up with a mechanism to incorporate certain commitments, business plans, registration restrictions, additional rights protection mechanisms and other objectives in the Base Registry Agreement such that they could be overseen by ICANN’s compliance department. In response to the GAC, the New gTLD Program Committee of the Board proposed a new Specification 11 to the Base Registry Agreement to transform application statements into binding contractual commitments,

I believe the focus of the GAC Advice was consumer protection  - not approval of business plans and adding RPMs as stated in the draft.   The actual GAC Advice with respect to Category 1 Safeguards was as follows:
