To be accurate, under current Bylaws, ACs and the ASO are generally free to make their own rules (there are some exceptions). The ccNSO and GNSO rules are generally subject to Board approval/rejection and the critical parts of their rules, how PDPs are conducted, are in fact Bylaws that clearly need Board explicit approval.
