The next meeting has been scheduled for 6 January 2014 at 14.00 UTC. Best regards, Marika Notes 16 December 2014: 1. GAC Early Engagement in new PDPs: * Review of Issue Scoping Gac Quick Look Mechanism document (see attached) * Discuss which, if any, questions should be called out for further discussion by GNSO and GAC in Singapore * Consider using highlighted areas in the form of questions to respective groups * How to best present it to avoid information overload as not everyone will have been privy to the detailed conversations? * Consider selecting a test case in which this could be used. * Consider making the joint GNSO-GAC meeting in Singapore a working session to encourage debate * GAC CG members to review proposed timelines and comment on whether these are reasonable or whether a F2F meeting would be required to take a decision on recommendation of Quick Look Mechanism Committee - also a question to be put forward to the whole GAC in Singapore. * Some noted that as it merely concerns flagging, it may be possible to do this intercessionally. * Flagging at Preliminary Issue Report stage will allow the GAC to organize and prepare as deemed appropriate to provide substantive input to the PDP WG at a later stage of the processs. * Possible question could be: would a 20 day timeframe be sufficient for a quick look mechanism. * Consider whether there are other variations of current options a, b and c? * Consider adding questions to each row intended for GAC-GNSO input * Make sure that everyone understands that this is the beginning of the beginning - early engagement as a first step of a longer process of engagement in the PDP. Add step after 11 to make clear that this is just the end of the initial phase (issue scoping). 2. GAC-GNSO dialogue on ongoing topics o Any updates or requirements regarding the IGO/INGO ongoing coordination? * IGO coalition is engaging with NGPC as well as reviewing questions submitted by the GNSO IGO-INGO Curative Rights PDP WG o Do we need to develop a general proposal for this work track? * Charter highlights deliverables in relation to this area * Consider whether a flow chart or table should be developed for this area. Marika to work with Mason on a draft for the next meeting. Next meeting is scheduled for 6 January 2015 at 14.00 UTC.
