Notes

· WP1 rapporteur - Jordan Carter - walked the WP through the agenda, provided an outline of CCWG discussions held on 5 March and flagged that Rapporteurs will have a meeting with the
Co-Chairs on 6 March to discuss shape of output.

Feedback:

- Are we addressing booking.com

-> WP2

- Consider addressing implementation (timeline etc)

Affirmation of Commitments and Related Reviews

Steve del Bianco walked the WP through 2A,B,C,D,E draft https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/52888421/Draft%201-%20AoC%20Accountability%20Mechanisms%20%5BSteve%20v4%5D.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1425370283000&api=v2

Feedback:

- Other AoC elements should be included in the Bylaws

-> 3, 4, 7, 8 are worth considering. Work is underway. Comments are welcome.

- Effectiveness of GAC should not be reviewed. We should not be putting doubt on effectiveness of doubt. Suggestion to remove "and effectiveness"

--> This is verbatim from AoC

-->Do other reviews in bylaws include effectiveness? If so, we should keep it.

- How do we guarantee implementation?

--> Obligation from Board to take action.- do we want stronger language?

--> Proposed language: 1) consider approval and begin implementation; 2) required action

ACTION ITEM Call for volunteers to work on Board action on bottom-up recommendations - Volunteers: Steve del Bianco, Jeff Neuman

- Specify which supermajority we are choosing

--> we will need to determine whether 3/4 or 4/5. Supermajority should be in brackets

- Concerns about courses of action/modalities

ACTION ITEM Kavouss to circulate note on .xxx

- TImeline needs to be revisited to allow for implementation

- Output of CCTRT should be considered in design of susbequent rounds

- Suggestion to delete WHOIS review and combine with CCTRT

- Empower the community by allowing the community a process to introduce different types of reviews

ACTION ITEM - Send Steve, Fiona, Matthew your comments.

Removing ICANN Board Directors

Jordan Carter walked the WP 1 through draft https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/52888421/Accountability%20Mechanism%20Template%20WP1%207A%20-%20Removing%20ICANN%20Directors.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1425285656000&api=v2

Feedback:

- Both options (removing of whole Board and removing individual Board members) should remain but criteria should be different. Quid of nterim?

- Both should remain - separation between WSs is not obvious. Need to change the appointment rules: every appointment should be 2 persons: 1 acting and 1 back-up (if removed etc) i.e. alternates.

- For individual removal, should it be community mechanism or individual SO/AC mechanism?

--> Removal of individual Board member could be done by community but with consent of SO/AC

- All gravitate to idea of spilling Board: should that be a necessary condition of transition? Strickling says it s a missing component. Write up with assumption it will never be used - Focus exclusively on mechanism called spill the Board and a second mechanism to recall one or several Board mechanism. Recommendation to make it done by splitting these two mechanisms - one WS1, one WS2

- Giving community opportunity to micromanage

ACTION ITEM: Jordan to restructure two mechanisms (WS 1/WS2), to add in the alternate suggestion
