[ccnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/ccnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/field...>) includes the procedure to select the Chair and Vice-Chair of the ccNSO. These procedures were not designed for a virtual meeting. It is proposed to follow the same procedure as last year (2021) For decision Draft Resolution Decision. The Guideline ccNSO Roles and Responsibilities includes among others a procedure for the selection of the Council Chair and Vice-Chairs. However, this procedure assumes that the selection process at in person meetings. The ccNSO Council meeting during ICANN73 is again virtual. For that reason the ccNSO Council adopts the extraordinary Chair and Vice-Chair selection procedure as proposed. The ccNSO Council requests the Guideline Review Committee to review the selection procedure and propose if necessary a procedure that would make the selection of the ccNSO Chair and Vice-Chair independent of the nature of the meeting ( virtual, hybrid or in-person) going forward. 1. Launch Roles and Responsibilities discussion For Information and Discussion 1. ccNSO & Universal Acceptance Deferred from previous call Recently the ccNSO was approached to appoint a liaison to the community Universal Acceptance Steering Group (UASG), see: The UASG requested the ccNSO Council to appoint a liaison: UASG leadership has reached out to ccNSO during ICANN71 for closer collaboration to support the work of ccNSO on UA. UASG leadership thanks ccNSO for a very positive and encouraging response. For better coordination on UA with ccNSO, UASG would like to request a UA liaison from ccNSO to UASG. UASG leadership will plan to meet regularly with the ccNSO’s nominee to learn on ccNSO’s plans for UA and discuss how UASG can help provide materials and other support. UASG leadership considers that a more regular communication through the liaison will help with the coordination and progress on UA. Going forward there are two issues that will need to be addressed: 1. What is the role of the ccNSO with respect to Universal Acceptance, if any? Does the relevant part of the ccTLD community expect the ccNSO to take on a role, and if so, which one. 2. Does the ccNSO Council want to appoint a liaison, if so should this be a Councillor or could this also be a ccTLD community member? Background material for information only: APTLD- White paper series no. 6 White paper Role of ccTLDs in achieving Universal Acceptance For Discussion 1. Change the Rules of the ccNSO: Council acceptance and next steps a. Council acceptance of proposed Rules For decision Draft Resolution Background In 2014 the Guideline Review Committee (GRC) was tasked to review the 2004 Rules of the ccNSO, after it had reviewed the Guidelines in place at the time. After completing its review and updating of relevant ccNSO Guidelines, including but not limited to introducing new Guidelines for the ccNSO as Decisional Participant, the GRC focused on the review and possible update of the 2004 ccNSO Rules. This review was necessary to take account of the evolution of the ccNSO since 2004: ● Growth of the ccNSO Membership from 38 on 1 March 2004 to 172 to date. ● The changed environment, such as but not limited to the introduction of IDNccTLDs in 2009, the transition of the IANA Stewardship in 2016 and the ccNSO becoming one of the Decisional Participants of ICANN’s Empowered Community ● The evolution of the governance of the ccNSO as demonstrated in conclusion of two Organizational Reviews and increase in documented procedures. The proposed new Rules are the result of extensive discussions and consultations at recent ccNSO Members meetings, starting with the ccNSO governance session during ICANN 69 when the GRC consulted the community to identify the issues with the current 2004 Rules. At subsequent ccNSO members meetings various proposals were discussed and refined, leading up to the ICANN72 meeting in November 2021, when the near final set of proposals were introduced to the community. In addition, and at various points during the process, the community was involved in the development of the proposals through a survey and consultative webinars and a comment period on the final proposal. To be adopted by the members, according to section 8, section 3, and section 5.3 of the 2004 Rules at least 50% of the ccNSO Members will have to cast their vote in the first round of voting and 66% of the votes cast need to support the new Rules. If the quorum is not met in the first round, this vote shall be invalid and a second round will start automatically 14 days after the first round was concluded. Decision In accordance with section 10.3(k) of the ICANN Bylaws, the ccNSO Council accepts the proposed Internal Rules of the ccNSO, Final version dated 27 January 2022 and submitted on 6 February 2022 to the ccNSO Council for adoption. The ccNSO Council notes that the proposed rules will become effective and replace the 2004 Rules of ccNSO upon adoption by the ccNSO Members in accordance with section 8 of the 2004 Rules of the ccNSO and publication of the Rules on the ccNSO website. The ccNSO Council wholeheartedly thanks the GRC and specifically its rules subgroup for their hard, thorough work and setting a new standard in the process for how the ccNSO man manage these hard issues in times of hardship like the current pandemic. b. Next Steps Under assumption the Council will support the updated Internal Rules, the following decisions are required: ● Approval of timeline for members vote ● Appointment of the voting process manager. For Decision Draft Resolution Decision The ccNSO Council appoints Joke Braeken of the ccNSO secretariat as Voting Process Manager to manage the electronic voting process on the new set of Rules for the ccNSO as accepted by the ccNSO Council at this meeting. In accordance with section 5.1.1 of the 2004 Rules of the ccNSO, the ccNSO Council launches the electronic vote by the ccNSO membership on the adoption of the new proposed Rules of the ccNSO. The electronic vote should start on Wednesday 23 March 2022 at 00.01 UTC and close on 6 April 2022 at 23.59 UTC. If less than 50% of the Members have casted their votes on 6 April 2022 at 23.59 UTC a second, final round should start on 21 April 2022 at 00.01 UTC and close on 5 May 2022 at 23.59 UTC. The Voting Process Manager is tasked to report the results of the first round on 7 April 2022 and if applicable the results of the second, final round on 6 May 2022. 1.
