16.                Adoption Terms of Reference Study Group Disaster Recovery

Draft Resolutions

Background

In May 2025, the Policy Gap  Working Group recommended the ccNSO Council to establish a Study Group to explore and advise to the Council on the role of IANA, if any, with respect to disaster recovery of ccTLDs.

The rationale for this recommendations was:

·         There is no current role for IANA, but participants seem interested in exploring this.

·         Because there is no current role, there is no existing policy to have to account for - a relatively “blank page” study can occur.

There is significant public interest in ccTLDs being resilient and available even when disaster strikes, so discerning whether IANA has a role in this can help with ICANN’s overall support of a stable and secure Internet. 

Following the recommendation of the PGA, the ccNSO Council decided to set-up a Study Group as suggested, and requested the chair of the PGA WG and secretariat to draft terms of Reference for the Study Group. The proposed Terms of Reference were circulated to Council.

Decision

The ccNSO Council adopts the Terms of Reference for the Study Group Disaster Recovery. The date to launch the call for volunteers will be decided by Council at a later stage to take into account prioritization of the ccNSO work items, and the related adoption of the ccNSO 26-27 Portfolio of activities. The secretariat is requested to publish this resolution as soon as possible. The resolution becomes effective 7 days after publication.

17.          Adoption Terms of Reference IANA Public Records Study Group

Draft resolution

Background

In May 2025, the PGA WG recommended the ccNSO Council to establish a Study Group to explore and advise the ccNSO Council on:

·       The purpose of IANA public records

·       The expected accuracy of the IANA public records

·       The enforcement and/or graduated compliance options

The rationale for this recommendations is:

·       The quality of the data in the IANA records is assumed to be a matter of significant public and community interest - it is to everyone’s benefit for this data to be accurate and up to date.

·       How to keep the data accurate and up-to-date will generate consideration of steps to be taken when it is not, and such consideration will help inform the future consideration of other issues. In other words, it is a foundational discussion that helps deal with other matters more efficiently later.

·       This is the issue that in an operational sense gives IANA most concern, and so dealing with it first will help IANA be more efficient.

Following the recommendation of the PGA, the ccNSO Council decided to set-up a Study Group as suggested, and requested the chair of the PGA WG and secretariat to draft terms of Reference for the Study Group. The proposed Terms of Reference were circulated to Council.

Decision

The ccNSO Council adopts the Terms of Reference for the IANA Public Records Study Group. The date to launch the call for volunteers is set for Tuesday 16 September 2025, will be decided by Council at a later stage to take into account prioritization of the ccNSO work items, and the related adoption of the ccNSO 26-27 Portfolio of activities. The secretariat is requested to publish this resolution as soon as possible. The resolution becomes effective 7 days after publication.

18.                Call for volunteers ccNSO Policy Implementation Assistance Group review Mechanism (ccPAIG RM)

Under the assumption the Board has adopted the ccNSO Policy review mechanism at its 8 June 2025 meeting, the implementation of the policy will need to be detailed.

The ccNSO has developed an outline for such a group. Accordingly, former members of the WG are explicitly invited to participate as well as others. One of the ccNSO Councillors is expected to be liaison between the group and the Council

The role and tasks of the group are described in the outline: https://ccnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/field-attached/outline-ccnso-pol... .

Draft Resolution

Decision

In accordance with the Outline Policy Implementation Assistance process, the ccNSO Council requests the secretariat to launch a call for volunteers for the ccNSO Policy Implementation Assistance Group, targeting members of the ccNSO PDP3 Review Mechanism  Working Group and (former) Councillors involved in the clarification process regarding the review mechanism. The call should be launched as soon as possible. This secretariat is also requested to publish this resolution as soon as possible. This resolution becomes effective upon publication.

19.                Appointment members or chairs/vice chairs to committees and working groups, if any

To be appointed:

·         Chair Tech Working Group: Eberhard Lisse

c.    Deferral 3rd CSC Effectiveness Review

In August 2024, the ccNSO and GNSO Councils deferred the 3rd CSC Effectiveness review pending implementation of the recommendations of the 2nd Review. Recently further steps regarding implementation of these recommendations were made, including a series of questions for the ccNSO Council.  Suggestion is to defer the 3rd Effectiveness review for one year pending implementation of the recommendations.

Draft Resolution

Background

The 3rd CSC Effectiveness Review was due to start in October 2024, three (3) years after the start of the 2nd Effectiveness review. In August 2024 the ccNSO Council decided to defer the 3rd CSC Effectiveness Review, and to revisit this decision in August 2025. Rationale for deferral was, firstly not all recommendations from 2nd review team were implemented, and secondly, the second Review was concluded in April 2023, with the adoption of the Final Report by the ccNSO and GNSO Councils, 1.5 years before the next review had to start.

As follow-up the Council received a letter from ICANN on the necessary Bylaw and Charter changes to implement the recommendations.The Bylaw changes are fundamental Bylaw changes, implying they will need to be approved by the Empowered Community and it will not be completed by October 2025.

Decision

As the reasons for deferral are still relevant, and after discussing possible deferral with the GNSO Council leadership, it is suggested to defer the 3rd CSC Effectiveness and revisit this decision in one year (June 2026). The Council requests its chair to - jointly with the chair of the GNSO Council -  inform the chair of the ICANN Board of Directors that the ccNSO and GNSO Councils will defer defining the method on how the 3rd CSC Effectiveness Review will be conducted. The secretariat is requested to publish the resolution as soon as possible, and this resolution becomes effective seven (7) days after its publication.
