The Accountability and Transparency Review is mandated by ICANN's Bylaws (Article 4, Section 4.6<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article4.6>) to review "ICANN's execution of its commitment to maintain and improve robust mechanisms for public input, accountability, and transparency so as to ensure that the outcomes of its decision-making reflect the public interest and are accountable to the Internet community." Current Status: The report drafted by the ATRT3 contains key findings and draft suggestions and recommendations. The ATRT3 has not reached consensus on its suggestions and recommendations. It is seeking input from the community on the proposals included in the draft report. Next Steps: The ATRT3 will carefully consider comments received and amend the report as it deems appropriate and in the public interest before submitting its final report to the Board. The ATRT3 expects to submit its final report to the Board in March 2020. The final report will be published for Public Comment in advance of the Board's consideration.
