Good evening : Colleagues may recall that I have argued in Sub-Pro and elsewhere that geographical indications must be protected in the DNS in the same way as are trade-marks. https://domainnamewire.com/2022/07/13/eu-weighs-new-rules-for-geographic-ter... <https://domainnamewire.com/2022/07/13/eu-weighs-new-rules-for-geographic-terms-registered-in-country-code-domains/> Recent reports (thankyou, Domain Name Wire) relate to the proposed EU Regulation for the protection of GIs for Industrial and Craft products including in the DNS (Article 41). The scope of the Regulation is the ccTLD Registries within EU jurisdiction. It goes into these matters in considerable detail (pp. 71). The Executive agency responsible for implementation is the EU Intellectual Property Office (previously known as OHIM, Alicante.) https://euipo.europa.eu/ohimportal/en/home <https://euipo.europa.eu/ohimportal/en/home> I would request that the protection of Geographical Indications be put back on the agenda of SubPro and CPWG. I would also be interested to know whether ICANN.org <http://icann.org/>, CCNSO and CENTR participated in preparatory consultations relating to this EU Regulation. Could At Large Staff please investigate and rerport on the background to this proposal. Regards CW

Dear Christopher, We will reach out to our colleagues within ICANN org to see if more information can be determined.

Dear Christopher, Thank you for your patience. ICANN org did not participate in preparatory consultations regarding the recent proposed EU Regulations related to GI (there are two proposals). The ICANN community was informed about the two proposals during the Geopolitical Plenary session held during ICANN74 - including the opportunity to provide feedback (which, at the time, was still open). For the ccNSO, we are not aware of any official ccNSO involvement in the preparatory consultations. For ICANN75, you might be interested to know that the ccNSO is organizing a session on this topic and results of the CENTR survey will be on the agenda. Date and time for this session are still TBD as the schedule is still being developed. The schedule will be published on Monday, 29 August.
