FY21-25 Operating & Financial Plan and Draft FY21 Operating Plan & Budget

Hi all,
ICANN published a new public consultation on Draft FY21-25 Operating &
Financial Plan and Draft FY21 Operating Plan & Budget. This process is
important for community to share input on budget and financial plan in
order to ensure resources and funding for critical elements such as policy
making in GNSO. 
As group, we are following this more closely understanding the new powers
coming with Empowered Community including budget approval and the
discussion about ICANN financial stability. For more background and
explanation you can find more info here:
https://www.icann.org/public-comments/draft-opplan-budget-fy21-25-2019-12-20-en
(https://www.icann.org/public-comments/draft-opplan-budget-fy21-25-2019-12-20-en)
I created this google doc to be used during the drafting and accessible to
all in order to kick off the discussion and comments:

Please let me offline if you want to volunteer to participate in drafting
the NCSG comment and join the drafting team. This effort should be led by
NCSG Finance Committee which will work with other volunteers to draft the
NCSG Comment.
You can find previous public comments submitted by NCSG in this wiki page
https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Public+Comments+-+2019
(https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Public+Comments+-+2019)
and listing those who drafted them.  
Best Regards,
Rafik Dammak
NCSG Policy Committee Chair
