      <div>Hi,</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Coming back to this thread, there was an expression to see
        references to the ICANN Board’s decisions on this topic. From
        what I can tell there was a discussion on the topic of “Category
        1 Safeguards for Highly Regulated Strings” on the February 5th
        meeting of the New gTLD Program Committee (NGPC) of the ICANN
        Board. It looks like there was no resolution taken during that
        meeting (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-new-gtld-2015-02-05-en">https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-new-gtld-2015-02-05-en</a>).</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>However, there was a reference to that meeting in another
        meeting that took place on February 12th, in which the NGPC
        seemed to agree on <i><b>“</b></i><span

      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I’m not sure what resolution was being referred to, as the
        report of the February 5th meeting indicated that there were no
        resolutions taken.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I’ll provide any updated info I come across.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Thanks.</div>
