Subject: [council] Motion to Re-Appoint GNSO Council Liaison to the GAC

 

Hi all,

 

I am pleased to submit this motion to re-appoint Julf to the position of GNSO Council Liaison to the GAC.

 

Best,

Keith

 

Motion: Reappointment of GNSO Council Liaison to the Governmental

Advisory Committee

 

Whereas:

 

  1. As part of the discussions within ICANN between the GNSO and GAC on how to

facilitate early engagement of the GAC in GNSO policy development activities,

the option of appointing a GNSO liaison to the GAC was initially piloted in FY15

and F16, and subsequently confirmed by the GNSO Council as a permanent role

at the start of FY17.

 

  1. The GNSO Council appointed Julf Helsingius to the role of GNSO Liaison to the

Governmental Advisory Committee on 24 October 2018, until the end of the

ICANN AGM 2019.

 

  1. The GNSO Council has an obligation to review the role annually and reconfirm

the appointment unless the review indicates otherwise and/or the Liaison has

indicated that he/she is no longer available to continue in this role, in which case

a new selection process will take place.

 

  1. The GNSO Council leadership has met with Julf Helsingius to discuss his

experience and to confirm that he is willing to continue in this role.

 

  1. The GNSO Council has reviewed the annual report prepared by the GNSO Liaison

to the GAC (see

https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/gac-

liaison-annual-02oct19-en.pdf). 

 

Resolved:

 

  1. The GNSO Council hereby reappoints Julf Helsingius to the role of GNSO Liaison

to the Governmental Advisory Committee until the end of the ICANN AGM 2020.

 

  1. The GNSO Council leadership team will inform the GAC leadership team

accordingly, and will co-ordinate with Julf Helsingius as well as the GAC

leadership team and GAC Secretariat on next steps and the continued successful

implementation of this role
