Revisions required to the Table of National Red Cross and Red Crescent names and identifiers
by Stephane Hankins Feb. 5, 2019

Feb. 5, 2019

Dear Berry, dear Members of the Core Group, I hope this message finds you well. (1) We wish to inform you herewith of several revisions to be brought to the table of National Red Cross and Red Crescent Society identifiers we have submitted, and thus, in order to reflect the recent change in the name of the “Baphalali Swaziland Red Cross Society” to “Baphalali Eswatini Red Cross Society”. This change in the official name of the Swaziland Red Cross follows the decision by the King and Head of State of Swaziland adopted in April 2018 to change the official name of the country to Kingdom of eSwatini (it is my understanding that this change is already reflected in the list of States members of ICANN’s Government Advisory Committee). The change of the official name of the “Baphalali Swaziland Red Cross Society” was confirmed by decision of the National Society’s General Assembly of 8 September 2018. Given that the change of name of the National Society in legal documents (including in the Baphalali eSwatini Red Cross Society’s legislation of recognition) will not be immediately effective, we recommend to keep the list of names in the table unchanged and to add thereto an additional set of identifiers including the new name “eSwatini”. Please find attached herewith consequently a revised list of names for the Baphalali Eswatini Red Cross Society. We could also submit a revised version of the global table if this is easier. (2) We also wish to take this opportunity to ask you when the Board report and the GNSO's recommendations on the red cross and red crescent identifiers are due for consideration by ICANN’s Board. With best wishes to all in 2019 and kind regards, Stéphane Stéphane J. Hankins Legal adviser Cooperation and Coordination within the Movement International Committee of the Red Cross Tel (Prof.):++41 22 730 24 19 From: Gnso-igo-ingo <gnso-igo-ingo-bounces(a)icann.org> On Behalf Of Berry Cobb Sent: Friday, September 28, 2018 7:11 AM To: gnso-igo-ingo(a)icann.org Subject: [Gnso-igo-ingo] Reconvened WG Resolution Adopted Hi All, The GNSO Council adopted all of the Reconvened WG recommendations. The motion carried unanimously. https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20180927-3 Staff will prepare a Board report and an additional public comment will be opened before the Board considers the GNSO recommendations. I suspect there will be brief updates by the GNSO and GAC about this milestone, but it is likely the Board will not consider this until at least December 2018 or early 2019. After which, the IRT will begin the implementation phase. Thank you.
