Subject: [ccTLDcommunity] Notice to the ccTLD Community on Rejection Action Board Notices

Dear ccTLD Community,

On Friday, 23 June 2017, the ICANN Board of Directors adopted resolutions regarding the following:

FY18 Operating Plan and Budget

FY18 IANA Budget

FY18 Five Year Operating Plan Update

As a result, on Saturday, 24 June 2017, the ccNSO as a Decisional participant received from the ICANN Secretary Rejection Action Board Notices for the 3 resolutions listed above.

The adopted FY18 Operating Plan and Budget, the FY18 IANA Budget, and the FY18 Five Year Operating Plan Update are subject to Rejection Action Petitions from the Community for each of the Rejection Action Notices.

The announcement from ICANN is available at https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2017-06-24-en[icann.org].  The specific procedures that the Community needs to follow are detailed in Section 2 of Annex D of the ICANN Bylaws, available at  https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#annexD[icann.org].

If you are interested in submitting a Rejection Action Petition to the ccNSO Council, please consult Section 2 of Annex D for the requirements, which must be met by a Rejection Action Petition.  Please also be advised that per Section 2.2(a)(i)(A) of Annex D, your proposed Rejection Action Petition must be:

“…based on one or more significant issues that were specifically raised in the applicable public comment period(s) relating to perceived inconsistencies with the Mission, purpose and role set forth in ICANN's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the global public interest, the needs of ICANN's stakeholders, financial stability, or other matter of concern to the community.”

If your proposed Rejection Action Petition meets the criteria given above, the deadline for submission of your Rejection Action Petition to the ccNSO Secretariat (ccNSOsecretariat@icann.org) is Monday 3 July 2017 23.59 UTC.

Kindest regards,

Katrina Sataki

Chair of the ccNSO Council
