Dear all,

Please find attached an extract from the final FY17 Budget document relative to the IANA Stewardship transition (Section 4), currently under review, prior to Board consideration for approval in Helsinki.

You may remember that the Draft budget document submitted for public comment did not include information on the FY17 expenses for this project. The Project Cost Support Team created in Marrakech has been working with the BFC, the CCWG, CWG, ICG co-chairs and involved staff to estimate the draft project’s expenses for FY17. These draft estimates have been included in the attached section (total $8.8m, page 3/10).

Though offered late in the process, as these estimates are under review, your comments and questions on this section are welcome.

Thank you.

Best,

Xavier
