Hi everyone,

A message on behalf of the co-chairs.

Best,

Adam


Dear CCWG colleagues,

We noticed that 3 important questions from our proposal were not copied over to the list of questions on the public comment webpage: https://www.icann.org/public-comments/ccwg-accountability-draft-proposal-2015-05-04-en

This was a drafting error when the comments were taken from the body of the report and copied to Section 11 on Public Comment Input.  The questions are copied below.  Please flag these questions to your respective organizations and ask them to consider in any responses they are providing. 

Omitted questions are:

1.) The CCWG-Accountability welcomes feedback on whether there is a need, as part of Work Stream 1 (pre-Transition), to provide for any other means for other parts of the ICANN system to be able to propose new Fundamental Bylaws or changes to existing ones. In particular, the CCWG-Accountability welcomes feedback on whether the Mission should be subject to even higher thresholds of Board or community assent. (para 126 of the CCWG proposal)

2.) Do you agree that the introduction of a community mechanism to empower the community over certain Board decisions would enhance ICANN’s accountability? (para 189 of the CCWG proposal)

3.) What guidance, if any, would you provide to the CCWG-Accountability regarding the proposed options? Please provide the underlying rationale in terms of required accountability features or protection against certain contingencies. (para 190 of the CCWG proposal)

We have asked for the CCWG-Accountabilty public comment webpage to be updated.

Thank you,

CCWG co-chairs
