Dear working group members, Please find below the proposed agenda for our ICANN74 working session<https://community.icann.org/display/TPRPDP/2022-06-13+ICANN74+Transfer+Poli…> scheduled to take place on Monday 13 June 2022 at 8:30 UTC/10:30 CEST (local time in the Hague). Prior to the call, please review pages 20-32 of the Final Issue Report<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/final-iss…>, which provides context about Change of Registrant, summarizes applicable metrics, and serves as a basis for Monday’s discussion. Kind regards, Caitlin, Berry, Julie, and Emily Proposed Agenda Transfer Policy Review ICANN74 session 1. Welcome and opening remarks 2. High-level Overview of Phase 1(b) Work - Change of Registrant (COR) 3. Discussion of Charter Questions<https://community.icann.org/display/TPRPDP/2.+WG+Charter?preview=/161808892…> d1 & d2 4. AOB Charter Questions d1 & d2: d1) According to the Transfer Policy Review Scoping Team Report, the Change of Registrant policy “does not achieve the stated goals” and “is not relevant in the current & future domain ownership system.” To what extent is this the case and why? Are the stated goals still valid? If the Change of Registrant policy is not meeting the stated goals and those goals are still valid, how should the goals be achieved? d2) Data gathered in the Transfer Policy Status Report indicates that some registrants find Change of Registrant requirements burdensome and confusing. If the policy is retained, are there methods to make the Change of Registrant policy simpler while still maintaining safeguards against unwanted transfers?
