<p style=""><font face="Arial, sans-serif">Dear All,</font></p>
<font face="Arial, sans-serif">I am honored to nominate Edward Morris as European representative for the NCSG on the GNSO Council.</font>
<p style=""><font face="Arial, sans-serif">Ed currently holds this position and, as we have seen, he takes his job very seriously. Ed works tirelessly as an NCSG representative in the Council's job of overseeing the policy development process. He fights to
ensure that Issues Report and Charters – key documents that kick off a new Policy Development Processes – are fair and balanced. He works with our NCSG Counselors and others to guide well-developed policies (developed by the Working Groups) to the Board for
adoption (without the changes and circumvention some parties often seek to add).</font></p>
<p style=""><font face="Arial, sans-serif">Ed is a leader in the cross-cutting work of Council where he has led our GNSO response to ICANN's Budget with an in-depth review and critique, and key recommendations for changes. He regularly serves on Council subgroups
working on responses to the issues the GNSO faces within ICANN. </font></p>
<p style=""><font face="Arial, sans-serif">We know Ed best in the last two years as a leader in the CCWG process fighting for Transparency, Accountability and Free Expression. The thousands of hours he spent on these issue (alongside Robin, Matt and so many
others) were critical to the provisions and bylaws adopted.</font></p>
<p style=""><font face="Arial, sans-serif">As we continue the Transition, and three major Policy Development Processes (Registration Directory Services, Rights Protection Mechanisms Review and New gTLD Subsequent Procedures) now in progress, this is a great
time to continue our outstanding leadership. Ed is a tireless advocate for our NCSG interests on Council and throughout ICANN. He is an attorney specializing in politics & government, free expression, intellectual property and cybersecurity and whose advocacy
and legal skills are needed in this important time of change and trasition. His passion, advocacy skills, drafting skills, and Multistakeholder vision are well-known.
<br>
</font></p>
<p style=""><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><i>My great thanks to Ed for his passion, commitment and thousands of hours of work for NCSG on Council, and I hereby submit Ed Morris' name to you for a second term as our European representative on the GNSO Council.
</i><br>
</font></p>
<p style=""><font face="Arial, sans-serif">Best regards,</font></p>
<font face="Arial, sans-serif">Kathy Kleiman</font> <br>
