<p dir="ltr">Call for Volunteers Implementation Review Team IRTP Part D</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">In February 2015, the ICANN Board of Directors adopted the recommendations as listed in the Final Report of the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP) Review Working Group Part D. The implementation phase of these recommendations is about to start - in consultation with an Implementation Review Team (IRT), which is yet to be convened.</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">As resolved by the GNSO Council, this call for IRT volunteers is for the attention of the members of the IRTP Part D Working Group, at a minimum. It is possible to reach out to other (directly affected) parties and/or experts to ensure broad participation, if deemed necessary. The key responsibilities of the IRT are listed below:</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">· The IRT evaluates the proposed Implementation Plan as drafted by staff for the recommendations as approved by the Board.</p>
<p dir="ltr">· The IRT assists in case of questions or need for clarification related to the adopted recommendations.</p>
<p dir="ltr">· The IRT works with ICANN staff to ensure that the implementation fulfills the original intentions of the approved policy recommendations.</p>
<p dir="ltr">· Familiarity with the policy recommendations as well as the deliberations that informed the policy recommendations is a minimum requirement for IRT members.</p>
<p dir="ltr">· All volunteers responding to this call are to understand the role and remit of the IRT for the implementation phase.</p>
<p dir="ltr">· If the IRT identifies potential modifications to the policy or recommendations, the team will refer these to the GNSO Council for its consideration and additional guidance.</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">How to apply</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">If you are interested in participating, please send an email to the GNSO Secretariat via</p>

<p dir="ltr">Background</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">The Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP) is an ICANN Consensus Policy under review by the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO). The GNSO identified several issues in its review of the policy and grouped these into several Policy Development Processes (PDPs).</p>
<p dir="ltr"> </p>
<p dir="ltr">The IRTP Working Group Part D started reviewing its assigned issues in February 2013, through weekly conference calls, an email list and face-to-face meetings during ICANN meetings in Beijing, Durban, Buenos Aires, Singapore and London. The Working Group presented 18 recommendations in its IRTP Part D Final Report: <a href="https://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/transfers/irtp-d-final-25sep14-en.pdf">https://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/transfers/irtp-d-final-25sep14-en.pdf</a>.
