>>    of GNSO representative to the Empowered Community Administration.
>>
>> *Item 4: COUNCIL DISCUSSION – IGO-INGO Access to Curative Rights
>> Protection Mechanisms (15 minutes)*
>>
>> The IGO-INGO Access to Curative Rights Protection Mechanisms PDP WG had
>> worked to resolve a final recommendation relating to IGO jurisdictional
>> immunity and registrants’ rights to file court proceedings. The WG has
>> determined consensus on a set of options for this final recommendation, as
>> well as for all other recommendations. The WG Chair proposed his
>> determination of consensus levels for all recommendations, which the WG
>> affirmed. On 27 June 2018, the GNSO Council passed a resolution
>> <https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#201806>, thanking the PDP
>> WG for its efforts and requesting that it submit its Final Report in time
>> for the 19 July 2018 Council meeting.
>>
>> After having agreed on consensus levels for its final recommendations,
>> the WG considered the text of its Final Report. On 9 July 2018, the PDP WG
>> submitted its Final Report
>> <https://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/igo-ingo-crp-access-final-17jul18-en.pdf>
>> to the GNSO Council for its consideration, which contains five consensus
>> recommendations and three minority statements, documenting their
>> disagreement either with one or more of the final recommendations or other
>> parts of the Final Report.
>>
>> There remain several inconsistencies between GAC advice and consensus
>> recommendations from the IGO-INGO PDP WG, which have yet to be reconciled,
>> including on the topic of appropriate protections for IGO acronyms (both
>> preventative and curative). During its 19 July Council meeting, the Council
>> resolved <https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#201807> to
>> accept the Final Report from the IGO-INGO Access to Curative Rights
>> Mechanisms PDP Working Group and has begun considering the topic of
>> curative rights protections for IGOs in the broader context of appropriate
>> overall scope of protection for all IGO identifiers.
>>
>> On 9 October 2018, the Council held a question and answer webinar to
>> review the recommendations and to ask itself a series of questions, 1) Does
>> the Council believe that the PDP has addressed the issues that it was
>> chartered to address (i.e. What questions/topics was the Working Group
>> chartered to consider, did it consider those charter topics/questions, and
>> did it do so in a legitimate way)?; 2) Has the PDP followed due process?;
>> and 3) Did the PDP Working Group address GAC advice on the topic?
>>
>> A motion to consider the Final Report was originally on the 24 October
>> 2018 Council meeting agenda but was withdrawn due to concerns around both
>> the process followed by the PDP, as well as the substance of the PDP WG’s
>> recommendations. Council leadership and staff have developed a summary
>> document [INSERT LINK WHEN READY] that lists issues raised by Councilors,
>> options available, and potential considerations.
>>
>> Here, the Council will consider the options available and discuss
>> appropriate next steps.
>> 4.1 – Presentation of topic (Council Leadership)
>>
>> 4.2 – Council discussion
>>
>> 4.3 – Next steps
>>
>>
>>
>> *Item 5: COUNCIL UPDATE – Temporary Specification for Registration Data
>> Expedited Policy Development Process - Recurring Update (25 minutes)*
>>
>> On 19 July 2018, the GNSO Council resolved
>> <https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20180719-2> to initiate
>> the Expedited Policy Development Process (EPDP) on the Temporary
>> Specification for gTLD Registration Data and adopt the EPDP Team Charter
>> <https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/temp-spec-gtld-rd-epdp-19jul18-en.pdf>.
>> Given the challenging timeline for the EPDP and the GNSO Council’s role in
>> managing the PDP process, the Council has agreed that including a recurring
>> update on the EPDP for each Council meeting is prudent.
>>
>> Here, the Council will receive an update from the GNSO Council liaison to
>> the EPDP.
>>
>> 5.1 – Update (Rafik Dammak, GNSO Council liaison to the EPDP and EPDP
>> vice-chair)
>>
>> 5.2 – Council discussion
>>
>> 5.3 – Next steps
>>
>>
>>
>> *Item 6: COUNCIL DISCUSSION – ICANN Reserve Fund (15 minutes)*
>>
>> The ICANN Reserve Fund was created in 2007 with a target level set at a
>> minimum of 12 months of Operating Expenses. It has been funded through
>> operational excesses. Over the past years, ICANN's operations have grown,
>> its risk profile has evolved, and withdrawals have been made to fund the
>> IANA stewardship transition expenses.
>>
>> On 6 March 2018, ICANN Org sought public comment
>> <https://www.icann.org/public-comments/reserve-fund-replenishment-2018-03-06-en>
>> on the Reserve Fund replenishment strategy, to bring the Reserve Fund to
>> its minimum target level of 12 months.
>>
>> During the 25 October 2018 meeting of the ICANN Board, two resolutions
>> were adopted to transfer funds to the Reserve Fund. The first
>> <https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2018-10-25-en#2.c>
>> transferred US$3,000,000 from the Operating Fund. The second
>> <https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2018-10-25-en#2.f>
>> allocated US$36,000,000 of auction proceeds to the Reserve Fund. Several
>> Council members expressed concern that auction proceeds were utilized for
>> this purpose, diminishing the pool of allocatable funds available to the
>> recommendations of the New gTLD Auction Proceeds Cross-Community Working
>> Group (CCWG).
>>
>> Here, the Council discuss potential issues and determine if any remedial
>> actions may be necessary at the Council level.
>>
>> 6.1 – Presentation of topic (Council Leadership)
>>
>> 6.2 – Council discussion
>>
>> 6.3 – Next steps
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> *Item 7: COUNCIL DISCUSSION – Discussion of the Inter-Registrar Transfer
>> Policy (IRTP) Policy Status Report (15 minutes) *
>> The Consensus Policy Implementation Framework (CPIF) provides guidance to
>> ICANN org and the community for implementing policy. However, there is
>> minimal guidance in this document or in other documentation around the
>> review of implemented policies adopted by the GNSO Council. In some cases,
>> a review is explicitly mandated as an element of the PDP WG’s
>> recommendations to the Council, but in some cases, the recommendations are
>> silent in this respect.
>>
>> ICANN org, in consultation with the Council, prepared a draft framework
>> on the approach for post-implementation reviews of Council adopted policy
>> recommendations. The framework provides guidance on a number of questions
>> (e.g., When should a review be initiated when there is no PDP
>> recommendation to do so? What triggers should initiate a review? What are
>> the expected outcomes of the review? Etc.).
>>
>> During its 26 April 2018 meeting, the Council tentatively agreed to have
>> ICANN org conduct a review of the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP).
>> ICANN org utilized the draft framework for conducting the
>> post-implementation review of the IRTP. On 14 November 2018, ICANN org
>> published
>> <https://www.icann.org/public-comments/irtp-status-2018-11-14-en> the
>> IRTP Policy Status Report for public comment.
>>
>>
>> Here, the Council will receive an update on the report, discuss its
>> initial reactions, and consider next steps.
>>
>> 7.1 – Presentation of materials (Brian Aitchison)
>>
>> 7.2 – Council discussion
>>
>> 7.3 – Next steps
>>
>>
>>
>> *Item 8: ANY OTHER BUSINESS (10 minutes)*
>>
>>
>>
>> 8.1 - Update on the Council Strategic Planning Session
>>
>> 8.2 - Permanent GNSO representative to the Fellowship Selection Committee
>>
