WEBCAST TODAY 10:30am EDT: US House IANA Transition Hearing
by Joly MacFie April 2, 2014

April 2, 2014

Hopefully with everyone over their jetlag from the trip back from Singapore, the US Congress now gets to talk IANA. Since the NTIA globalization announcement back on March 14, politicians from Newt Gingrich<https://twitter.com/newtgingrich/status/444608973455384576>to Sarah Palin <https://www.facebook.com/sarahpalin/posts/10201681563024880> have raised concerns that it is a US giveaway of a strategic asset. Congress is certainly going to paying close attention as the process develops. Every Internet user worldwide has an interest in the four factors in the hearing's title - Security, Stability, Resilience, and Freedom - and thus the answers to the questions listed below. We in turn should pay close attention to Congress, joly posted: "On Wednesday April 2 2014, at 10.30am EDT, the U.S. House of Representatives Energy & Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Communications and Technology will a hearing Ensuring the Security, Stability, Resilience, and Freedom of the Global Internet in" [image: Energy + Commerece]On *Wednesday April 2 2014, at 10.30am EDT*, the U.S. House of Representatives Energy & Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Communications and Technology will a hearing *Ensuring the Security, Stability, Resilience, and Freedom of the Global Internet*<http://energycommerce.house.gov/hearing/ensuring-security-stability-resilie…>in Washington DC.

Does NTIA plan to exercise the automatic option for renewal on the IANA contract if a satisfactory proposal is not received? - What sort of multi-stakeholder community would be the ideal replacement for NTIA's role in the IANA functions? - What safeguards will be in place to prevent a future change that would allow for governments to seize control? - What oversight role should Congress play to ensure a successful outcome. - What will be the practical impact of this transition on Internet users and businesses that utilize the Internet for commerce?
