Becky is implementaing changes. -------- Message transféré -------- Sujet : [CCWG-ACCT] Malcom Hutty/ BBurr Consolidated draft on IRP text Date : Fri, 31 Jul 2015 00:04:02 +0000 De : Gregory, Holly <holly.gregory@sidley.com> Pour : León Felipe Sánchez Ambía <leonfelipe@sanchez.mx>, Thomas Rickert <thomas@rickert.net>, Mathieu Weill <mathieu.weill@afnic.fr>, Becky Burr <Becky.Burr@neustar.biz>, Grace Abuhamad <grace.abuhamad@icann.org>, acct-staff@icann.org <acct-staff@icann.org> Copie à : Sidley ICANN CCWG <sidleyicannccwg@sidley.com>, ICANN-Adler <ICANN@adlercolvin.com>, Rosemary E. Fei <rfei@adlercolvin.com> Dear Co-Chairs, We have reviewed the IRP draft and have relatively few comments. Overall it looks in good shape. We do have one significant concern however and it relates to the following paragraph which was added in the very last draft: _20 b. CCWG-Accountability confirms that the IRP Panel has the power to stay a Board decision or action. It further recommends that it also have the power to require ICANN to take a decision or action on an interim basis, until the Board has had a chance to consider and decide how to implement an IRP Panel decision._ We strongly recommend this paragraph be deleted. We believe that it is not only unenforceable but that it is inconsistent with California law and the fiduciary duties of directors (as indicated in prior memos). We also urge extreme caution in the next several days with these types of last minute additions and language changes.
