<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white"><span style="color:black">This cycle, Council leadership suggested revising the job description to reflect a preference for appointees that are not currently affiliated with any Stakeholder Group
 or Constituency, recognizing that this may not always be feasible. However, concerns were raised about the feasibility of identifying unaffiliated candidates that are also adequately knowledgeable about the ICANN environment and the GNSO more specifically.
 The Council discussed the proposed revisions during its October meeting where concerns were also expressed that the revised guidance may potentially serve as a chilling factor to otherwise qualified, but currently affiliated, candidates. Council leadership
 noted that the rationale for the proposed changes were to preserve the balance of the Council and to promote both independence and diversity in NomCom appointees to the Council. The Council established a small team to seek to reach agreement on a revised job
 description; the small team shared its proposed final draft [LINK TO BE ADDED WHEN AVAILABLE] on [date]. </span><u></u><u></u></p>
