Hello all, Greetings from Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Just accroach by this thread and want to share it with you for your contributions on the 'terms limit' of our representatives in the differents councils. This 'public comment' is normally due by 11-sep. Warm regards Olévié KOUAMI ExCom ---------- Message transféré ---------- De : "Steve DelBianco" <sdelbianco@netchoice.org> Date : 8 sept. 2017 1:28 PM Objet : [CCWG-ACCT] SOAC-Accountability question, for reply by 11-Sep-2017 À : "CCWG Accountability" <accountability-cross-community@icann.org>, "MSSI Secretariat" <mssi-secretariat@icann.org>, "Bernard Turcotte" < turcotte.bernard@gmail.com> Cc : As discussed on our SOAC team call yesterday, we are nearly finished with
our public comment responses <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1uAjMUtnaigi5-zSMGmmIbvFNcPxGQC0cMB_a...> and updated recommendation <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sT6SscZLT7VK2rVFOMPaiK1Qd8vlVLkm0boRX7I8...> to the CCWG.
One remaining question is whether to add an additional Good Practice to the 28 we already have in our report.
The purpose of this email is to hear from all members of SOAC-Accountability as to whether our report should include this new proposed Good Practice:
*An AC/SO/Group that elects its officers should impose term limits. *
Note that this proposed Good Practice would *only* apply to AC/SO/Groups that have elections. And as with all of our Good Practices, we describe applicability in our Executive Summary:
In Track 1 we recommend 29 Good Practices that each SO/AC/Group should implement, to the extent these practices are applicable and an improvement over present practices. We do not recommend that implementation of these practices be required. Nor do we recommend any changes to the ICANN bylaws. We do recommend that Operational Standards for periodic Organizational Reviews conducted by ICANN could include an assessment of Good Practices implementation in the AC/SO subject to the review.
And we include this caveat on page 8:
"AC/SO/Groups are only expected to implement Good Practices to the extent that these practices are applicable and an improvement over present practices, in the view of AC/SO/Group participants. Again, we do not recommend that implementation of these practices be required by AC/SO/Groups.”
Please reply to all by 11-Sep with your view on whether we should add Term Limits as a Good Practice.
