Hello Manal and other members of the Empowered Community Administration,
Please find attached a draft termination notice for your review as requested. It is based substantially on a similar notice that had been sent in relation to termination of the applicable Rejection Period last year for the IANA and ICANN Budgets, drafted by Stephen Deerhake.
If you wish, staff will be pleased to forward the final notice on behalf of the Empowered Community Administration to John Jeffrey, ICANN Secretary (with cc to those noted in the letter as well) if there are no objections or edits. Thank you!
Cheers
Mary

Calvez; 'Cherine Chalaby'; David Olive *Subject:* [ECAdmin] Notice of expiration of Rejection Action Petition Period for the FY19 IANA Budget
Dear members of the Empowered Community Administration,
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 FY19 IANA Operating Plan & Budget that was approved by the Board expired several hours ago (at 07.59 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 FY19 IANA Operating Plan & Budget 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 this particular Rejection Action. ICANN will then be obliged to promptly post the Rejection Process Termination Notice on the ICANN website.
Please let staff know if the Empowered Community Administration wishes for staff to draft the requisite Rejection Process Termination Notice for your sign-off, and if you require any other assistance.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Mary

Dear Katrina,
Under Section 22.4(b) of the Bylaws, the ICANN Secretary (i.e. John Jeffrey, General Counsel) is required to provide a Board Notice to the Empowered Community Administration and the five Decisional Participants following Board approval of the IANA budget (see https://www.icann.org/ resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article22[icann.org] <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resources...>). The notice that was sent was therefore titled “Notice of Board Approval of FY19 IANA Operating Plan and Budget”, and signed by John in his capacity as ICANN Secretary.
As you noted, however, *delivery of this Notice of Board Approval launches the Rejection Process set out in Annex D of the Bylaws*. *The 21-day Rejection Action Petition Period relating to the FY19 IANA Budget and Operating Plan has thus been initiated and will end at 23:59 Pacific time on 1 March 2018 (or 07:59 UTC on 2 March 2018)*. Should a Decisional Participant in the Empowered Community receive and decide to accept such a petition within this 21-day period, the *8-day period to obtain the support of at least one other Decisional Participant will end at 23:59 Pacific time on 8 March 2018 (or 07:59 UTC on 9 March)*.
In the event that a petition is accepted by a Decisional Participant and supported by at least one other Decisional Participant, the Empowered Community Administration may direct ICANN organization to convene a Community Forum on the topic. In this case, the period for any such Community Forum (including any that may be held at ICANN61) will expire at 23:59 Pacific time on 29 March 2018 (or 07:59 UTC on 30 March).
Please note that as this Empowered Community power relates to the IANA Budget and Operating Plan, a Rejection Action Petition is not valid unless it includes a rationale “based on one or more significant issues that were specifically raised in the applicable public comment period(s) relating to perceived inconsistencies with the Mission, purpose and role set forth in ICANN's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the global public interest, the needs of ICANN's stakeholders, financial stability, or other matter of concern to the community”.
Please see Article 2, Annex D of the ICANN Bylaws for the full details of the Rejection Process: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/ bylaws-en/#annexD[icann.org] <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resources...> .
Finally, staff notes that the Empowered Community Administration webpage and mailing list has been updated to reflect the most recent appointments to the Empowered Community Administration from each Decisional Participant (see https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/ec- administration-2017-05-25-en)[icann.org] <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resources...>, and we will post the Secretary’s Notice shortly to the Empowered Community Administration Correspondence web page.
Thank you.

Mary

Dear All,
Although this is called Secretary’s Notice of Board Approval of FY19 IANA Operating Plan and Budget it looks to me that this is a Board Notice for a Rejection Action (“Rejection Action Board Notice”) as defined in Section 2.2. (a) of the Annex D of the Bylaws. Am I correct? If yes, could we stick to the terminology used in the Bylaws? Otherwise it might get very confusing. Thank you!
Kind regards,
