It is based on the preparatory work of the ALAC Finance and Budget Subcommittee and the regional At-Large organisations (RALO). The RALOs discussed the FY11 Operating Plan and Budget Framework during their monthly teleconferences and online. The regional priorities and budget requests for the coming fiscal year have been archived and can be reviewed on a dedicated wiki workspace: https://st.icann.org/alac/index.cgi/index.cgi?regional_input_for_alac_statem...

The online vote resulted in the ALAC endorsing the Statement with a 14-0 vote. You may review the result independently under: https://www.bigpulse.com/pollresults?code=Ii2NQSj9F7AspeumQetz On April 13th 2010, the Staff person responsible for the public consultation on the Proposed Framework for the Fiscal Year 2011 Operating Plan and Budget was informed about the result and the Statement was also transmitted to the ICANN Board of Directors.
