Draft Resolution

 

Background

The recommended Retirement Policy was submitted to the ccNSO Council and ccNSO Membership for their consideration and adoption.  At its meeting on 17 June 2021 the ccNSO Council adopted all recommendations contained in the Final Report of the Issue Manager as submitted to the Chair of the ccNSO Council on 08 June 2021.  The adopted recommendations were conveyed to the Members of the ccNSO as the Council Recommendation to vote upon. The ccNSO members voted in July 2021 to determine whether the ccNSO membership supported the ccNSO Council's recommendation to adopt the proposed policy on the retirement of ccTLDs. The ccNSO Membership supported the Council Recommendation. The Issue Manager submitted the Board Report to the ccNSO Council chair on 30 August.

 

Decision

The ccNSO Council adopts the Board Report on the Proposed Policy for the Retirement of ccTLDs as part of ccNSO Policy Development Process 3.  The Board report contains per requirements of Annex B of the ICANN Bylaws:

·         The result of the members vote

·         The ccNSO recommendation, following the vote by the members of the ccNSO

·         The Final Report, which contains the proposed policy process for the retirement of ccTLDs

 

The Council requests the secretariat to publish this decision as soon as possible on the ccNSO website and inform the ccNSO membership accordingly. The decision becomes effective seven (7 days) after publication.

The Council requests its Chair to inform the ICANN Board of Directors of the decision of the ccNSO Council as soon as it has become effective, and submits the report to the Board for their consideration.

The Council expresses its appreciation and congratulates the WG and specifically the co-chairs of the ccPDP3-RET - Stephen Deerhake and Eberhard Lisse – for completion of the process.
