Re: [ECAdmin] Notice of Expiration of Rejection Action Petition Period for the FY20 Operating Plan and Budget and Updates to Five Year Operating Plan 2020
by Ozan Sahin May 30, 2019

Dear Empowered Community Administration representatives, In accordance with the timelines and procedures set out in Annex D of the ICANN Bylaws, staff notes that the 21-day Rejection Action Petition Period pertaining to the FY20 Operating Plan and Budget and Updates to Five Year Operating Plan 2020 that were approved by the Board expired almost two hours ago (at 06.59 UTC). No Rejection Action Petition Notices (as defined in Annex D, Section 2.2(c)(i)) were received by the Empowered Community Administration within the prescribed timeframe. As such, under Annex D, Section 2.2(c)(ii), the Rejection Process for the FY20 Operating Plan and Budget and Updates to Five Year Operating Plan 2020 is thus automatically terminated. The next step is for the Empowered Community Administration to, within twenty-four (24) hours of the expiration of the Rejection Action Petition Period, deliver to the ICANN Secretary a notice certifying that the Rejection Process has been terminated with respect to these particular Rejection Actions. ICANN will then be obliged to promptly post the Rejection Process Termination Notices on the ICANN website. Please let staff know if the Empowered Community Administration wishes for staff to draft the requisite Rejection Process Termination Notices for your sign-off, and if you require any other assistance.

Dear Empowered Community Administration representatives, Under the ICANN Bylaws, delivery of the Board Notices on 8 May: (1) requires Decisional Participants to “promptly inform their constituents” of the delivery of such notice; and (2) triggers the 21-day Rejection Action Petition Period, during which (and subject to the procedures and requirements of each Decisional Participant) an individual may submit a petition to any Decisional Participant, seeking to reject the Board action(s). This 21-day period commenced on 8 May 2019 and will end at 23:59 p.m. Los Angeles time (LA being the location of ICANN's principal office) on 29 May 2019, or 06.59 UTC on 30 May 2019. Please refer to Annex D of the ICANN Bylaws for additional details on the Rejection Process, including all pertinent deadlines and requirements for Rejection Action Petitions: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#annexD [icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…> Please do not hesitate to contact staff if you or your community groups have any questions, or if we may be of further assistance.
