In doing so, the Council required that the GNSO Council Liaison to the EPDP report back to the GNSO Council on the status of deliberations. Accordingly, status updates were regularly provided to the GNSO Council over the course of the EPDP Phase 2A’s deliberations. The EPDP Team published its Initial Report for public comment<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/epdp-phase-2a-initial-report-2021-06-…> on 3 June 2021, which included preliminary recommendations as well as questions for community input. The EPDP Team delivered its Phase 2A Final Report to the GNSO Council on 3 September 2021, which was updated on 13 September 2021 with the minority statements incorporated into the Final Report The GNSO Council will receive a presentation on the Final Report, to better prepare the Council for a vote during the October meeting. While this agenda item is for discussion only, a draft motion<https://community.icann.org/x/_gBmCg> was circulated to the GNSO Council on 13 September 2021 for discussion purposes. The Council will also consider the proposal contained in the Final Report, which recommends that the Council follow current and future legislative developments which may require further policy work. Here, the GNSO Council will receive a presentation, as well as discuss the Final Report and the draft motion. 4.1 – Introduction of topic (Philippe Fouquart, GNSO Council liaison to EPDP Phase 2A) 4.2 – Presentation on the Final Report 4.3 – Council discussion 4.4 – Next steps Item 5: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - GDS Update on the Framework for the Policy Status Report Framework on the UDRP (30 minutes) On 21 January 2021, the GNSO Council approved the recommendations from the Phase 1 Final Report of the GNSO Policy Development Process (PDP) on the Review of All Rights Protection Mechanisms (RPMs) in All gTLDs, covering RPMs applicable to gTLDs launched under the 2012 New gTLD Program. The Council has discussed the need to review the RPMs charter in advance of launching Phase 2 of the PDP, which is focused on the UDRP. Council leadership had considered the best path forward to initiating this work and shared their thoughts [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/…> for advancing this effort on 13 July 2021, which considers a Policy Status Report (PSR) as a possible next step. The Council discussed the approach during its July meeting and agreed that ICANN org should consider how to conduct the PSR and return to the Council to present their proposed framework for the PSR, in advance of initiating the actual work. ICANN org shared a presentation on 13 September 2021. Here, the Council will receive a presentation and consider whether it agrees with the proposed approach for the PSR. 5.1 – Introduction of topic (Council leadership) 5.2 – Presentation (Antonietta Mangiocotti - ICANN org) 5.3 – Council discussion 5.4 – Next steps Item 6: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - CCWG-Accountability WS2 Implementation - Next Steps for the GNSO Council (15 Minutes) On 7 November 2019, the ICANN Board adopted [features.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/features.icann.org/ccwg-accountability-w…> all of the consensus recommendations contained within the WS2 Final Report<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ccwg-acct-ws2-final-27mar18-en.…>. As part of the resolved clauses, ICANN Org was directed to begin implementation of those recommendations, in accordance with the WS2 Implementation Assessment Report<https://community.icann.org/display/WEIA/Public+Documents?preview=/12081960…>. In 2020, the GNSO Council sought to get ahead of impending work it will eventually be asked to undertake for the implementation of WS2. In an effort to better understand the specific items that it will be tasked to complete, the Council performed an analysis<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/attachments/20210120/54a46f27/WS2Acc…> (circulated<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2021-January/024396.html> on 20 January 2021) of the recommendations and considered which might result in tasks for the Council to complete. Since then, ICANN org has devoted additional staff resources to help assist the community to understand which recommendations may result in work for each of the respective Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, and of particular interest to the GNSO, each of the Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies (which for the most part, are entirely separate from work the GNSO Council will undertake). Here, the Council will receive an update from ICANN org on the latest efforts related to the WS2 implementation. 6.1 – Update (Mary Wong - ICANN org) 6.2 – Council discussion 6.3 – Next steps Item 7: ANY OTHER BUSINESS (10 minutes) 7.1 - SSAD Operational Design Phase _______________________________ Appendix 1: GNSO Council Voting Thresholds (ICANN Bylaws, Article 11, Section 11.3(i)) See https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article11.

In doing so, the Council required that the GNSO Council Liaison to the EPDP report back to the GNSO Council on the status of deliberations. Accordingly, status updates were regularly provided to the GNSO Council over the course of the EPDP Phase 2A’s deliberations. The EPDP Team published its Initial Report for public comment<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/epdp-phase-2a-initial-report-2021-06-…> on 3 June 2021, which included preliminary recommendations as well as questions for community input.

The Council has discussed the need to review the RPMs charter in advance of launching Phase 2 of the PDP, which is focused on the UDRP. Council leadership had considered the best path forward to initiating this work and shared their thoughts [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/…> for advancing this effort on 13 July 2021, which considers a Policy Status Report (PSR) as a possible next step. The Council discussed the approach during its July meeting and agreed that ICANN org should consider how to conduct the PSR and return to the Council to present their proposed framework for the PSR, in advance of initiating the actual work. ICANN org shared a presentation on 13 September 2021.

As part of the resolved clauses, ICANN Org was directed to begin implementation of those recommendations, in accordance with the WS2 Implementation Assessment Report<https://community.icann.org/display/WEIA/Public+Documents?preview=/12081960…>. In 2020, the GNSO Council sought to get ahead of impending work it will eventually be asked to undertake for the implementation of WS2. In an effort to better understand the specific items that it will be tasked to complete, the Council performed an analysis<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/attachments/20210120/54a46f27/WS2Acc…> (circulated<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2021-January/024396.html> on 20 January 2021) of the recommendations and considered which might result in tasks for the Council to complete. Since then, ICANN org has devoted additional staff resources to help assist the community to understand which recommendations may result in work for each of the respective Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, and of particular interest to the GNSO, each of the Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies (which for the most part, are entirely separate from work the GNSO Council will undertake). Here, the Council will receive an update from ICANN org on the latest efforts related to the WS2 implementation. 6.1 – Update (Mary Wong - ICANN org) 6.2 – Council discussion 6.3 – Next steps Item 7: ANY OTHER BUSINESS (10 minutes) 7.1 - SSAD Operational Design Phase _______________________________ Appendix 1: GNSO Council Voting Thresholds (ICANN Bylaws, Article 11, Section 11.3(i)) See https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article11.

Council leadership had considered the best path forward to initiating this work and shared their thoughts [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/…> for advancing this effort on 13 July 2021, which considers a Policy Status Report (PSR) as a possible next step. The Council discussed the approach during its July meeting and agreed that ICANN org should consider how to conduct the PSR and return to the Council to present their proposed framework for the PSR, in advance of initiating the actual work. ICANN org shared a presentation on 13 September 2021. Here, the Council will receive a presentation and consider whether it agrees with the proposed approach for the PSR. 5.1 – Introduction of topic (Council leadership) 5.2 – Presentation (Antonietta Mangiocotti - ICANN org) 5.3 – Council discussion 5.4 – Next steps Item 6: COUNCIL DISCUSSION - CCWG-Accountability WS2 Implementation - Next Steps for the GNSO Council (15 Minutes) On 7 November 2019, the ICANN Board adopted [features.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/features.icann.org/ccwg-accountability-w…> all of the consensus recommendations contained within the WS2 Final Report<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ccwg-acct-ws2-final-27mar18-en.…>. As part of the resolved clauses, ICANN Org was directed to begin implementation of those recommendations, in accordance with the WS2 Implementation Assessment Report<https://community.icann.org/display/WEIA/Public+Documents?preview=/12081960…>. In 2020, the GNSO Council sought to get ahead of impending work it will eventually be asked to undertake for the implementation of WS2. In an effort to better understand the specific items that it will be tasked to complete, the Council performed an analysis<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/attachments/20210120/54a46f27/WS2Acc…> (circulated<https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/council/2021-January/024396.html> on 20 January 2021) of the recommendations and considered which might result in tasks for the Council to complete. Since then, ICANN org has devoted additional staff resources to help assist the community to understand which recommendations may result in work for each of the respective Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees, and of particular interest to the GNSO, each of the Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies (which for the most part, are entirely separate from work the GNSO Council will undertake). Here, the Council will receive an update from ICANN org on the latest efforts related to the WS2 implementation. 6.1 – Update (Mary Wong - ICANN org) 6.2 – Council discussion 6.3 – Next steps Item 7: ANY OTHER BUSINESS (10 minutes) 7.1 - SSAD Operational Design Phase _______________________________ Appendix 1: GNSO Council Voting Thresholds (ICANN Bylaws, Article 11, Section 11.3(i)) See https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article11.
