Dear all

 

Just to clarify on the GAC as decisional participant.

 

There has been a GAC consensus input into the public comment period (see attached and under http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-draft-ccwg-accountability-proposal-30nov15/msg00070.html) where this issue is addressed under the following terms:

 

==

 

Establishing an empowered community for enforcing community powers

(RECOMMENDATION 1)

The GAC anticipates that it intends to participate in the proposed community

mechanism with the following qualifications.

The GAC would focus on participation in the processes of engagement and

escalation detailed in Recommendation 2 with a view to supporting dialogue and

mutual understanding that would lead to resolution of disputes rather than

escalation.

GAC participation would be primarily guided by a careful and prudent analysis of

whether the issue under consideration has public policy and/or legal implications.

The GAC’s participation at the enforcement stage as appropriate is still under

discussion.

 

==

 

As in other constituencies, discussions will logically continue on this and other topics according to the existing timeline and whenever the final recommendations are on the table the GAC intends to provide a final assessment.

 

But for the time being, the position expressed above by the GAC as a consensus input on December 21st is the position which should be considered in my view as “the GAC position”.

 

Hope this is helpful

 

Regards

 

Jorge
