Dear Councilors, As you may recall, the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Policy Development Process Working Group established a sub-team, known as Work Track 5, in late 2017 to address the issue of geographic names at the top level. Work Track 5’s first task was to agree upon a Terms of Reference (ToR) document describing the scope of work and methods for completing this work. Please find the ToR attached, which closely follows the format of a GNSO Working Group charter. The Terms of Reference document is also available on the Work Track wiki: https://community.icann.org/x/RgS8B. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the leadership team, copied here. Kind regards, Emily Emily Barabas | Senior Policy Specialist ICANN | Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers Email: emily.barabas@icann.org | Phone: +31 (0)6 84507976
