donation is used in a way that advances noncommercial interests in ICANN and is not just subsidizing people who are interested in the money. We have an impeccable 10 year record of responsible management. As soon as the NCSG develops the infrastructure to
do that, I as Treasurer will gladly relinquish responsibility for future PIR donations.

The Public Interest Registry, the primary donor of NCUC has informed<br>
us that it prefers to fund NCSG as a whole so that all NCSG members<br>
and its constituencies can benefit from the funding. However, since<br>
NCSG at the moment does not have the appropriate channels to allocate<br>
the money nor receive it, the NCUC will receive the funding for this<br>
year and open the future calls for application for travel support to<br>
all NCSG members and its constituencies.<br>
<br>
Please note that the decision processes regarding the allocation of<br>
travel support or any other allocation of funding will be carried out<br>
through NCUC Executive Committee based on the NCUC Operating<br>
Procedures.<br>

Best,<br>
