Notes
IRP
ˇ
to more closely focus the IRP to identify if ICANN has failed to act, and satisfy the statutory claims of the sole member
ˇ
community selection process to designate members of the panel. To create a pre-vetted pool of members and alternates
ˇ
standing: available to person or entity materially harmed, by action or inaction.
ˇ
tender a process to find an organisation to set-up the IRP court, though an RFP from well qualified candidates
ˇ
expertise: beyond technical, e.g. diplomatic, regulatory
ˇ
diversity: aspirational diversity, and some suggestions for caps, minimum or maximum from a region
ˇ
scope: for any violation of the bylaws, and under the mission and core values ICANN has an obligation to follow documented policy and act without discrimination
ˇ
Exhaustion: can't sit on the sidelines of a police development process, there is an obligation to be part of the process
ˇ
Some contemplation of having to go to ombudsman or reconsideration process before launch of an IRP.
ˇ
the period of the consideration should be fixed, as a WS2 effort to define processes.
ˇ
Criteria for appeal will be established. Avoiding frivolous or insubstantive claims
ˇ
Diversity important for the panel.
ˇ
Community driven, but the Board will also have a say.
ˇ
CCWG to continue to developed rules of procedure
ˇ
Consideration of issues out of scope of the IRP
ˇ
Appels procedure, avoiding a continuous loop.
ˇ
Support for the enhanced IRP
2. – Removal / recall Board members
Individual Directors
ˇ
should be open and transparent
ˇ
support for the appointing SO/AC being able to remove their director
ˇ
Provided 3 option for removal of NomCom appointed directors
ˇ
The single member does the removal, but on instruction from the SO/AC
ˇ
NomCom removal process to be discussed/agreed
ˇ
Assume this power will be exercised as the other powers, with petition and thresholds for agreements
ˇ
Need to synchronise with the reference model, the community forum and voting mechanisms
ˇ
To be aware of the CWG dependencies
ˇ
Most feedback was that the appointing body would be the remover.
ˇ
Principle of fairness, the criteria of what constitutes cause should be available to all appointed.
ˇ
Thresholds should be consistent across SO/AC and NomCom.
ˇ
The decision threshold in the proposal is the same for all Directors
ˇ
Notion of fairness and criteria for removal should be considered by WP3
ˇ
Sébastien Bachollet expresses concern and a member's minority view on Director removal
ˇ Concern noted that the ability for the appointing body to remove a Director may turn that person into a representative of that body, not to serve ICANN as a whole.
