Dear Alan,

on 7 July 2017, the ALAC filed a Statement in response to the call for public consultation published below.
The Statement can be found on https://atlarge.icann.org/advice_statements/9983

As the Statement featured input from several EURALO members, with a topic that is indeed of much interest to our region, I have been formally asked on today's EURALO monthly call, to ask the ALAC about the impact of the ALAC's Statement on the recommendations of the IAG Initial Report.
Would you please be so kind to let us know in due course.
Warmest regards,

Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond
EURALO Chair
