The annual OP&B for the IANA functions has two components: a budget and operating plan for Public Technical Identifiers (PTI), the ICANN affiliate that performs the IANA functions, which outlines the planned activities and resources to deliver the core IANA functions. The second component includes the PTI budget plus additional programs and costs that the ICANN organization incurs overseeing and enabling the IANA functions.

In addition to the webinars, the community has further opportunity to participate in this planning process. The draft plans will be put out for Public Comment in September before being considered for formal adoption in late 2021.
