Dear ALAC members, On the At-Large Regional Leadership call held on July 19 <https://community.icann.org/display/CRALO/2018-07-19+At-Large+Regional+Leade...>, the RALOs had a significant discussion on the FY19 CROP, particularly the scope and responsibilities of the CROP Review Team <https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=43982055> members. After thorough deliberations, all RALOs decided unanimously to recommend to the ALAC that the CROP RT be eliminated for the FY19 and onwards. The RALOs decided to coordinate and manage the CROP Program allocations internally. The functions of the RT members will be performed by the CROP Program Coordinators <https://community.icann.org/display/CROP19/CROP+Contacts>. RALOs will review and if necessary, change their Program Coordinators <https://community.icann.org/display/CROP19/CROP+Contacts>. We would like to request that this item be placed on the July 24 ALAC meeting agenda for its discussion and ALAC approval. Thank you! Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond (on behalf of RALO Chairs)
