Dear Laura,
Thank you for your response and sharing of the relevant ccNSO WG Charter. It would be most helpful if you could monitor the progress of this WG and in due course, advise the ALAC if it should initiate seeking an appointment of an ALAC-appointed participant to this WG
Kind regards, Justine

Dear Justine,
Thank you for your comments and suggestions on the report.
As to the new WG, *initially it is open to ccTLDs only, however others may be invited. by the Chair.*
Let me highlight the paragraphs regarding de new WG membership:
Membership of the WG is open to all ccTLD managers (whether members of the ccNSO or not).
At least one of the WG members should be a ccNSO Councillor.
The ccNSO Council appoints the members of the WG.
ccTLD regional organisations may nominate a liaison to be confirmed by the ccNSO Council.
*The Chair of the WG may invite other ICANN Supporting Organisations (SO) and/or Advisory Committees (AC) or constituencies to appoint a participant. *
It is expected that IANA staff will be involved with this work as experts.
The Chair of the WG may also request other ICANN Staff to participate in (part of) a meeting of the WG as Experts.
*The Chair may invite individuals with expert knowledge in an area the WG is discussing (experts). *
Participants and Experts participate on an equal footing in the deliberations and sessions of the WG with Members, unless the Chair of the WG at their discretion explicitly requests participants and/or experts to refrain from actively participating in a specific meeting.
Participants or Experts shall not participate in the process of seeking out and fostering involvement and input from ccTLD managers. Other members of the broader community may attend meetings of the WG that are designated as “open” as Observer.
However, Observers are not expected to participate actively in the proceedings of the WG. The list of members, participants, experts and observers is published on the relevant ccNSO webpage by the ccNSO Secretariat. The member’s archive is kept for five years after closure of the WG. The full document is attached.
If anyone would like to participate, please let me know.
Thank you!

Thank you for this extensive report, Laura.
I just wanted to do 2 things:
(1) To draw our ALAC colleagues' attention to the role of the ccNSO Liaison to the ALAC which is being called by the ccNSO Council to be filled.
*3.5 Role of ccNSO Liaisons* The ccNSO Liaisons to other organizations shall not be members of or entitled to vote on the Councils of other organizations, but otherwise shall be entitled to participate on equal footing as other Liaisons. Any view they share with the organsiation they have been appointed is their personal view. ccNSO Liaisons do not represent the ccNSO, unless specifically instructed by the ccNSO Council to the contrary. ccNSO appointed Liaisons to other organizations shall report to the ccNSO Council regularly (monthly) on the activities of the respective organization they have been appointed to. A Liaison shall represent ccNSO values in these efforts, shall pursue specific direction from the ccNSO Council as and when given, and shall seek ccNSO Council advice as and when needed.
(2) To request that you share with us when it is published, the ccNSO Policy Gap Analysis Working Group (PGA WG) charter. In the interim, could you advise if membership to this PGA WG is limited to only ccNSO members and/or ccNSO Council members?
Kind regards, Justine
