As you can see one of the ABRs been approved that gives 1 travel slot to one leader from developing countries. This is valid for 3 meetings. I think usually EC just approves the call for applicants and we have a travel procedure now so I think FC can have a look at the operating procedure for travel which will be approved soon. I will draft an announcement for people to apply and send it to NCSG EC for approval.

I furthermore mentioned that some of the action items will be dealt with on the mailing list based on the outcome of today's meeting. I hope this is clear, thanks once again to everyone who attended.

We can explore options but the first question we should ask is whether we should actually incorporate NCSG. 1. Incorporation needs a new management that is involved with the governance of the board. 2. Incorporation needs legal advice, beyond what ICANN legal can tell you 3. Incorporation of a new entity with new management might not be appealing to the funders. Using tried and tested channels can be better. What are the pros of incorporation? What can you achieve by incorporation that you cannot achieve by using the same bank account but allocating and distributing the funds based on FC operating procedures which will include various ways of FC oversight of the funds.

As I mentioned during the call, having a separate entity requires its management of the whole organization, including funds, bylaws, reporting, programs, etc. what is needed is an agreement of a way forward to distribute the funds, so and that those funds are overseen by the FC and directions from NCSG EC. It is good to explore the possibility of an incorporated organization as a long term strategy.

With organisational structures the greater structure would normally support the subsidiary/affiliate structure, where the lesser consults with the greater, that is why I agree to discussing this in our next meeting. I also take cognisance of necessary governance and management structural requirements that come with incorporation but sometimes best and common practice helps with long term stability, accountability and transparency of a body such as the NCSG. Concerning funders, has there been any queries made or fact finding missions initiated to determine if funders are not be comfortable with funding NCSG in its own bank account? If not, I think this is actionable. Thanks. Thato Mfikwe.

However, my take initially was that the use of NCUC is for this year fund-holding account only, within which time formal incorporation may have been concluded. But going with the outcome of our meeting and further underlining input, this may take up to 2020 or more, depending on level of fast-tracking measure we may taken or decided due to intricacies of board of trustee management. Another option worthy of note is that since its obvious incorporation of new entity in US will take a long time while to come, probably because of trustee issues, it may become expedite to consider having NPOC in the Chair/Treasurer whereas NCUC retains the account-holding, to ensure and encourage more transparency in our process and inclusivity. This, if concluded may commence at the following year in NCSG/Leadership calendar and probably incorporate that in the operating procedure. This will assuage the issues or claims of any further marginalisation, in moving forward. I really do not have issues where the money/fund is kept as long as FC has relative access when required and they approving to MoU kind of to give financial statements/reports when required, but our structure also has to change as aforesaid. The truth now is that the current leadership may understand themselves, but not same all the time, depending on who takes over after the current stakeholder leadership. ____ REMMY NWEKE, mNGE, Lead Strategist/Group Executive Editor, DigitalSENSE Africa Media [*Multiple-award winning medium*] (DigitalSENSE Business News ; ITREALMS , NaijaAgroNet ) Block F1, Shop 133 Moyosore Aboderin Plaza, Bolade Junction, Oshodi-Lagos M: 234-8033592762, 8023122558, 8051000475, T: @ITRealms Author: A Decade of ICT Reportage in Nigeria *South-South Nigeria DigitalSENSE Forum on IG4D & Nigeria IPv6 Roundtable * (Uyo, Akwa-Ibom State).

Is the NCSG Treasure formal member of the NCSG EC or EC member only within constituency they represent? The NCSG charter is not clear on this. 2. Given the fact that the FC is only starting to get activities underway, can the travel policy be amended to also accommodate the planned work and engagements of the FC, especially in this early stages of its composition so that it can gain traction with the SG and ICANN the organisation? The travel policy only emphasises on policy development with no consideration on the work of the FC which is not necessarily policy related. Thanks. Thato Mfikwe.

Moreso since they are warehousing current external funding support its imperative to get report from them and how this has been used, at least in the last one year. May be, you revisit the section again in our NCSG charter and like I said earlier, we all need each other than waving off the FC.

Volunteer ServiceNCSG Finance Committee members serve as volunteers, without compensation. This contribution is respected and appreciated. However, reimbursement of reasonable and necessary expenses will be available for travel to face-to-face meetings and to outreach events as approved by the NCSG Finance Committee Chair, in accordance with applicable terms of ICANN's travel reimbursement policy.* You are aware that the Finance Committee does not receive travel slots from ICANN? And then Finance Chair approves reimbursement of travel of Finance committee member? From what funding? I don't agree with this. I don't think Finance Committee can approve an allocation of travel to itself from outside funding. Also this paragraph: 1. 6. Disbursement of funds to constituencies: * 1. Any inflow arising from external funding, shall be distributed/disbursed based on 40-40-20 formula; that is, 40 per cent each for both constituencies (NPOC and NCUC) while the NCSG-FC retains 20 per cent as a running cost for its administrative incidentals or as may be agreed with exercise of voting process on best module at the time of disbursement. 1. Also, each constituency can apply for its own funding once pronouncement has been made on availability of any inflow with sufficient evidence on anticipated expenditure plan.* F NCSG has to be included in these plans. There should be no allocation of distributed funding based on the percentage between constituencies but distribution should be based on requests. FC should at a more general level set the principles on how these requests will be processed. and 20 percent goes to FC? I don't really understand why. what is administrative incidental? Don't know what this means: 1. or as may be agreed with exercise of voting process on best module at the time of disbursement. On Sat, Jul 7, 2018 at 5:44 PM farzaneh badii wrote: > Not really remmy.

The organization or community warehousing via SPV should not be shortchanged as I expect them to give reports of what they are doing with their funds as stipulated in the Charter, I do not think it's in our place to dedicate to them on how to manage it but must be seen as carried along to know what they are doing and with the available fund. I will revert later in the day on other issues and I hope we make our comments on the google doc so as to avoid missing any comments when some of these are resolved. I will also move this response there too. See you much later as I am headed out for mass. Thanks and best of the Sunday.

Thanks. Don't worry, it will be shared. I expect that by Thursday this week, everyone should have read through and made observations, then we can update and share, at most by weekend.

There is no one here who said it will not be shared, but sharing it the way you did connotes a lot including disregard to others and knowing fully well its not a private policy document. Jumping the gun in this instance, is not the best practices for committee assignment. Please, lets avoid a repeat. Thank you and good evening to all.

I think it should be shared. I always share my first drafts within a very short period of time with the members. But that said, I didn't share the direct link to the document on the list. They must have gotten to the link because I shared all the committees' archives on the list (FC, PC and EC) under my email called holding us accountable, nothing mentions operating procedures specifically as long as I remember. I didn't invite anyone to comment directly on the document. If you want as the penholder can remind the list to hold off commenting until Friday. Which I really don't agree with, but strongly suggest not to reject any comments that have been made so far.

Anyway planning a meeting by Friday or sometime next week to review the operational procedures as the FC so that we can solicit feedback from the NCSG EC before sharing publicly, would be a good step forward, *for now lets work on finishing with our comment as the FC by tomorrow 9pm UTC so that we can start to consolidate as from Wednesda*y. In our next meeting we can vote on sections which we do not agree on. Any comments are welcome regarding agenda items because I want to ask Maryam to create a doodle to this effect, thanks. Thato Mfikwe Jul 8 (2 days ago) to NCSG Hi Farzaneh, Can you please place your comments on the Google doc so that it becomes easier to follow on and resolve. Eventually the FC needs to comment on the draft operational procedures before sharing with membership for comment, hopefully by next Friday we can have a consolidated and clean doc to share with members On Mon, Jul 9, 2018 at 11:42 PM, farzaneh badii wrote: > Dear Remmy, > > > I have to say I don't agree with your guidelines.

I will not vote on any section until members have received due notice and ample of time to comment on this document. I totally disagree with having any meeting for now before receiving feedback from the members . Here is what our charter says regarding receiving members review: section 2.4, Executive Committee ? After review by the NCSG members, review and approve NCSG-??PC and NCSG-??FC methods and procedures. I suggest we keep commenting and resolving comments until Friday and then share this with the NCSG mailing list to comment on. They should be given 3 to 4 weeks to comment. We need to resolve comments and then decide if the document is good to be sent to NCSG EC to be approved.

URL: From thatomfikwe at gmail.com Tue Jul 10 03:21:58 2018 From: thatomfikwe at gmail.com (Thato Mfikwe) Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2018 02:21:58 +0200 Subject: [NCSG-FC] DRAFT NCSG-FC Operating Procedures In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi, According to the minutes of our last meeting, nothing was said about sharing the document, it is still at development/compilation/editing stage by the FC, that is why Remmy was tasked to create it. It is too early to make it available for public comment as it might distracts our collective effort and prolong completing it, it is not yet complete yet. You are right, public comments first then PC & EC approval, but first and foremost the FC needed to exhaust available options and resources through deliberations and resolving where we do not agree with the attempt of creating a unified document to present to the public mailing list. We need to work together and cooperate with each other to ensure that the FC is respected within NCSG and is taken seriously, decision need to be made according to procedure because a* public mailing list discussions are open and a committee discussions are closed*, so taking a private matter to a public platform when it is not yet open for public discussion creates numerous problems. For instance, an NCSG EC member cannot publicize an issue that is still under discussion at EC level or has not been decided upon to be made public yet, or can they?

URL: From farzaneh.badii at gmail.com Tue Jul 10 04:02:46 2018 From: farzaneh.badii at gmail.com (farzaneh badii) Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2018 21:02:46 -0400 Subject: [NCSG-FC] DRAFT NCSG-FC Operating Procedures In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Thato When you say discussions are closed, what do you mean exactly? This is not a private matter, it's just that it is being discussed here in the FC but the mailing list archive is publicly available. So everyone can see these emails and discussions. Moreover, According to our charter: *2.6.5. NCSG-??FC Mailing List* ? All NCSG-??FC full members and observers will be subscribed to the NCSG-??FC mailing list; ? The NCSG-??FC list will maintain an open archive; ? *For non-??subscribers, the list will be moderated. Comments from NCSG members relevant to ongoing discussions will be forwarded to the NCSG-??FC list by the list moderator.* So as the charter says, the NCSG members even now can chime in and send an email to this mailing list which will be forwarded by the moderator. In EC I usually put the operating procedures up for a couple of days, EC members chime in if we can resolve the issue then we will if not after a couple of days I send it to the mailing list for members to have a look, add, or suggest clarification or suggest to remove sections etc. EC members can do so as well concurrently. Yes we can deliberate and discuss and come up with a document that can be shared with members on Friday. But it won't be final and we cannot vote on it at all until members have seen it. If we can agree and resolve as many things as we can by Friday, then good. If not sharing it on the mailing list for members to weigh in is not a problem. I suggest you both go through the document until Friday, we resolve as many issues as we can and for the ones we cannot resolve they remain until members chime in. In the meantime, if a member wants to chime in even now they should be able to do so.

URL: From remmyn at gmail.com Tue Jul 10 08:37:39 2018 From: remmyn at gmail.com (Remmy Nweke) Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2018 06:37:39 +0100 Subject: [NCSG-FC] DRAFT NCSG-FC Operating Procedures In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Farzaneh Hope we all are good. *"For non-??subscribers, the list will be moderated. Comments from NCSG members relevant to ongoing discussions will be forwarded to the NCSG-??FC list by the list moderator.*" >From the above, its intents and purposes, it showed that while opening up the discussions, some measures must be put in place to enable moderating, and that has not been done or agreed to open-up even though we have an open archive, therefore the intent to share the discussions or procedure under discussion rests with the list moderator, which in this case is the NCSG-FC chair and not any other way. So, a member cannot chime in for now, until the clean up is done. I personally will not like us to be seen as a divided house despite our differences. I also think the chair has explained this enough for us to make progress. That we decide on resolving comments for now does not anyway mean final voting, its just to enable us progress to the next level. As far as I am concerned, a house divided within itself is not likely to make progress. Yes, we may not agree on all points until certain clarifications are made. So having a meeting to resolve any unclear session before sending it to general house mailing list, not EC now, is the best route. I think forwarding it to EC after dealing with public comments will be appropriate. Can anyone remember the duration stipulated for this or is it at the discretion of chair? I think 7 days to 14 days is enough, definitely not 4 weeks. Please lets us avoid comments that will divide us further. And it may be good if observations on the operating procedures are made with suggestions, rather than declaration for "delete" especially for a whole session, until resolution time, or at best seek clarification, to help us all understand the rationale, then if its not justifying enough, it could be deleted. Best of the day to us all. ____ REMMY NWEKE, mNGE, Lead Strategist/Group Executive Editor, DigitalSENSE Africa Media [*Multiple-award winning medium*] (DigitalSENSE Business News ; ITREALMS , NaijaAgroNet ) Block F1, Shop 133 Moyosore Aboderin Plaza, Bolade Junction, Oshodi-Lagos M: 234-8033592762, 8023122558, 8051000475, T: @ITRealms Author: A Decade of ICT Reportage in Nigeria *South-South Nigeria DigitalSENSE Forum on IG4D & Nigeria IPv6 Roundtable * (Uyo, Akwa-Ibom State).

Thanks for all the efforts going into making an input on the OP. Today we need to develop a clean document to be shared publicly with the community tomorrow. For purposes of presenting a unified FC OP document I would like to recommend the following edits to clean up the document. *Sections requiring edits based on current comment (subject to your comment):* Section 1: Obligations of FC members iii. Lets leave the way Farzaneh has amended it iv. The FC does not manage constituency funds Section 2: Opening an account ii. The edits made are not material to the extend that they require consensus, edits already made are ok Section 3: Use of constituency bank account Edits done by Farzaneh seem to be accomodative with me Section 4: Vacancies and removal of FC members i & ii. It is cumbersome to have this clauses and as they are difficult to monitor iii. a. Few edits were made but please feel free to provide your comments c & d. Removal e. Needs to be rephrased or deleted Section 5: Disbursement of funds v. A formula or approach on how finances should be disbursed needs to be developed and approved by the NCSG EC, seems like there is no consensus on the FC regarding this vi. Not sure why Farzaneh deleted this because constituencies need to plan their expenses for financial planning purposes, failure to do so will result in fruitless and irrational spending and uninformed decisions to fund constituencies, please provide your comments 2. I will go through the remaining sections and send an update so that we have the document ready by 17pm UTC tomorrow. We now need one penholder that will fairly express the view of the FC while acknowledging minority views and comments in completiontion of this draft OP. Remmy initially was the penholder, @Remmy, are you still up for it? 3. Anyway, there is something I am not understanding, why is James Gannon editing and deleting content on the document? If someone can be kind to do an introduction because the document is still under development by the FC. If we can agree on 1 penholder we can close the editing rights and discuss other issues via email, thanks. Thato Mfikwe. .

Although I am not offended by the change in setting, but I think I have done my draft as assigned from our last meeting and will still be available if the assignment should continue in that capacity. As earlier outlined, after this first clean copy, it will be shared to members with a dateline and we clean it up with the members comment where appropriate and then send it to NCSG-EC for review/further comments and approval. I so submit Mr. Chairman.

URL: From remmyn at gmail.com Fri Jul 13 01:32:02 2018 From: remmyn at gmail.com (Remmy Nweke) Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2018 23:32:02 +0100 Subject: [NCSG-FC] My comments and edits on the FC operating Procedures In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Thato et al Thanks too for this mail. I sent us a separate mail. Not sure you got or saw it before this. However, my response will be in line of your mail. 1. Thanks for all the efforts going into making an input on the OP. Today we need to develop a clean document to be shared publicly with the community tomorrow. For purposes of presenting a unified FC OP document I would like to recommend the following edits to clean up the document. *Sections requiring edits based on current comment (subject to your comment):* Section 1: Obligations of FC members iii. Lets leave the way Farzaneh has amended it iv. The FC does not manage constituency funds I really do not know what you mean here. Are you referencing the oversight as contained in the OP. This is why there is need for harmonisation meeting/session, so as to have everyone on the same page and table. Section 2: Opening an account ii. The edits made are not material to the extend that they require consensus, edits already made are ok Mr. Chairman, I think, every decision of FC deserves to have a relative consensus, so that no one will tomorrow claim sidelined. I pray we are not heading towards that. The OP including the Charter have means of taking decision sir. Section 3: Use of constituency bank account Edits done by Farzaneh seem to be accomodative with me Sorry sir, I do not think so. Personalising and customising Operating Procedure the way she proposed to PIR is not ideal. Like I asked what happens if tomorrow there is funding support from a funder more sympathic to NPOC, do we have to change the OP again and what happens if we have PIR and another still with NPOC co-funding. We have to be a neutral as possible so as to accommodate any funder at all. Section 4: Vacancies and removal of FC members i & ii. It is cumbersome to have this clauses and as they are difficult to monitor iii. a. Few edits were made but please feel free to provide your comments c & d. Removal e. Needs to be rephrased or deleted Rephrasing has already been done by me and pasted there but because I do not have editing powers, it was not adjusted and we need to look at it together. Section 5: Disbursement of funds v. A formula or approach on how finances should be disbursed needs to be developed and approved by the NCSG EC, seems like there is no consensus on the FC regarding this I think that the Operating Procedure will help us develop the disbursing formula, so that when we are sending or sharing this with our community, it will be a little comprehensive. Like i said earlier, we FC needs to meet to harmonise some of these thoughts before sharing, otherwise it will amount to sharing our dirty clothing in the public. And the haste to share this without resolving these thoughts connotes a different agenda that we must watch. vi. Not sure why Farzaneh deleted this because constituencies need to plan their expenses for financial planning purposes, failure to do so will result in fruitless and irrational spending and uninformed decisions to fund constituencies, *please provide your comments*. 2. I will go through the remaining sections and send an update so that we have the document ready by 17pm UTC tomorrow. We now need one penholder that will fairly express the view of the FC while acknowledging minority views and comments in completiontion of this draft OP. Remmy initially was the penholder, @Remmy, are you still up for it? Mr. Chairman, I am still in as the penholder, that is if Farzaneh has reinstated that, but then, this document will not be ready from my end by 17pm UTC tomorrow as proposed, because I already have a scheduled field visit on Friday and may not come back or even with steady access until Saturday morning. And I am not sure why the haste to share this without resolving the various thoughts already made by FC members. 3. Anyway, there is something I am not understanding, why is James Gannon editing and deleting content on the document? If someone can be kind to do an introduction because the document is still under development by the FC. If we can agree on 1 penholder we can close the editing rights and discuss other issues via email, thanks. This point, I raised it earlier and it should be Farzaneh that should provide an answer because she shared the link in the name of 'Hold us accountable" topic. Although I was expecting her to correct herself and follow the guideline you as chair earlier shared with us on how to move forward. I also think the sanctity of FC needed to be respected and we must see ourselves as one to make progress. For us to have a harmonised discuss, there should be a formal meeting beginning with a doodle to enable people adjust their time schedules since we are not all in the same time zone. I honestly do not know why you want us to hurriedly close the editing and continue discussion online. Once the draft is shared, its FC that shared it and is responsible for its content and I would not like us to start sounding like broken bottle at the community space, except if there are questions that needed clarifications, so as to avoid us dominating discuss on the community space.

For any other external funding to be made to NCSG, I have added a language that the external funder can decide which constituency They want to use. You could make the paragraph general anD say the funder can decide. I don't recommend it in case of PIR. > > Section 4: Vacancies and removal of FC members > i & ii.

We don't escalate things to the CEO if there is a problem with staff support. As the last resort we escalate to senior staff in charge.

I never anniunced comment on this link. A member has been curious enough to see our activities, they can click on any link and comment. They can even send an email to this mailing list according to the charter and I encourage the moderator not to stop it from reaching us. You cant really stop comments. What you could do is to say their comments will be considered during the comment period. Sanctity? No. Sorry weren't you talking about dirty clothing? There is no sanctity. There are disagreements.

No rush. Let's see if we can come to an agreement during a meeting. I am going to a retreat until the end of July. Let's have a meeting during the month of August. This doesn't mean FC has to stop its fundraising activities. Let's prioritize. We don't have external funding yet. So You don't really need to focus how to disburse funded. Fundraising activities can be done. We can pick other activtivities. My many many cents and dollar bills.

URL: From thatomfikwe at gmail.com Fri Jul 13 15:28:08 2018 From: thatomfikwe at gmail.com (Thato Mfikwe) Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2018 14:28:08 +0200 Subject: [NCSG-FC] My comments and edits on the FC operating Procedures In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi Remmy, Farzaneh and all, Thanks for all the hardwork and apologies for the late night sleep as a result :) Please let me know when you propose we share the document because the community was expecting to get it today and Farzaneh refuses to finalising the FC comments before the community input, which according to me does not make sense because we need to present a document that has been collectively developed by the FC, also noting minority views on certain clauses we do not agree on. @Remmy, based on the work you have already done, I would like to believe that now you were granted editing right. We can leave the disbursement formula for the community to comment on and make a decision from there because it seems like all our views are different on how this needs to be done, not sure what Farzaneh's intake or solution on 'the disbursement formula is. Lets try come up with alternatives where we do not agree to smooth things up. We need to all agree on a date or period when we can have an online meeting to harmonise the OP and yes, Farzaneh, please explain why James was granted editing rights? *We must to maintain respect for each other as FC members, irrespective of our other positions and experience within the NCSG or at constituency level, we all have our own experiences relating to governance. leadership and financial management which should make things easier. Every members contribution should be valid and respected, so we need to promote and uphold unity and collaboration within the FC and anything that seems to compromise or undermine that need to be dealt with swiftly before it create irreversible damage to our efforts.* There is no need to challenge, retaliate or resist when decisions of the FC if they do not favour an individual FC member, so cooperation is expected from all members of the FC, because usually in committees the views of the majority suffice in case of disagreements and furthermore we were appointed to serve on this committee to fulfil the responsibilities of the FC as mentioned in the Charter and not to maintain certain positions which are not clear how they will help further the financial interests of NCSG FC or NCSG financially. *If there is anyone conflicted by being on the FC committee, let them speak out so that we can work around this and if nobody thinks that they are conflicted, then I do not see any reason why we should not work harmoniously together. Some of these differences might need the FC to discuss them face to face because online it might be difficult to establish cooperation and common understanding or even break this differences.* Please please, let's reason with each other and be more tolerative of different views, I will always try my best to accommodate the views of FC members and I do not necessarily disagree with a view point because of personal reasons but only based on best practice and experience, instead fairness needs to be guarded at all time to protect the reputation and image of the FC within the wider NCSG community which was already compromised before we started due to past experiences with the former FC and it seems like there are members who are ready to discredit the FC if we do not get our house in order. Farzaneh, we do value your contributions as Chair of NCSG and as NCSG Chair you will get another opportunity to express your dissatisfactions when the document is sent to the EC after community input or comments. Furthermore, refusing to participate in planned FC meeting indicates that you are not willing to cooperate unless you are comfortable with decisions made, but on the other side of the coin, the efforts of the FC are a collective not individualistic and sometime we need to agree to our disagreements in a sensible manner not by second guessing or challenging the majority views of the committee. I believe everyone has a right to express themselves and listened to without fear, favour or compromise, but I also believe in democratic processes. We cannot have a person dictating terms on what the FC can or cannot do, if the majority of members think or see otherwise. The truth is the decisions made by the majority will not always favour everyone and the FC must acknowledges that its decisions are subject to community input and EC approval, so we need to give all these processes their own time as they will minimise the level of disagreements we have, I mean we started to work in like 2 weeks ago and it is too early to start having so much differences and issues. Our overarching goal should be to firmly establish the presence of the FC and promote good governance within NCSG, if there is anything else I am missing please share. I hope this email finds you all in good health, thanks but I need to know the following: - Do we share the document as is or we postpone as Remmy proposed, if we postpone, please indicate when it can be shared - How long will the community be granted time to comment on the OP? The views and comment of observers (Joan and Renata) will greatly be appreciated in order to move forward with some of these issues as outlined above, I will also share a proposed timeline of FC activities for your input in a few hours, thanks once again and apologies for the lengthy message.

The link to doc is shared on the fc mailing list. Anyone who checks the mailing list can comment on the doc. No one gave James editing rights.

However, I will briefly respond to some of the issues raised here. Yes, I have gotten back the access to edit. Thanks Farzaneh The meeting doodle the soonest will be fine to ensure we have it next week and afterwards share to community. I really do not see what is there for us to have 1 month for comments. Its not ideal. two weeks will be fine, As I do not want anything to dampen the moral of current FC in the name of non activity. Do forget the OP will still be sent to be cleaned after the comments for EC submission. Unnecessary delays will be dangerous to getting FC to work and we must avoid such. Best of the good evening to all.

How is this a second draft? You kept most of the issues that we flagged unresolved and kept your original language. Even the ones which Thato agreed with me and had suggested alternatives. You should either as the penholder suggest a compromise, or flag all these issues before we discuss with the members. Also, at this stage, I think we need to have a meeting with those who drafted the NCSG charter to discuss and clarify the points we have doubts about. Moreover, we need to discuss inviting two more members to join the FC.

I only resolve the issues I was clear have been discussed and an understanding established. I am precisely interested in ensuring fair engagement, so do a pointer to the ones you and Thato had an agreement on and it will be taken as resolve. I also reworked some as he proposed with hope that will make same better sense. Why do you intend inviting supposed drafters of NCSG charter? As far as this charter is concerned they do not have any privilege of decision so why that route. If there are issues we can resolve with voting as contained in charter.

URL: From farzaneh.badii at gmail.com Sat Jul 14 04:44:39 2018 From: farzaneh.badii at gmail.com (farzaneh badii) Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2018 21:44:39 -0400 Subject: [NCSG-FC] [DRAFT-2] NCSG-FC Operating Procedures v2 first clean copy In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: The issues that were raised in the past because of the different interpretation of the charter and needs to be cleared are the obligation of FC (section 3 of operating procedures) . Since in the other doc I can see that Remmy relies on the NCSG charter to argue for providing oversight for constituencies through NCSG FC, I think it is crucial to talk to those who were involved in drafting it to know what the charter means and can help us with its correct interpretation. I think we should get a reality check on why FC was suggested in the charter, what was the rationale for it. Then we can get a clearer interpretation. So I believe a meeting with the drafters of the charter and the FC and observers and whoever else we want is needed. I think it can help us.

Thato's comment is in black yours is in red. : *Sections requiring edits based on current comment (subject to your comment):* Section 1: Obligations of FC members iii. Lets leave the way Farzaneh has amended it iv. The FC does not manage constituency funds I really do not know what you mean here. Are you referencing the oversight as contained in the OP. This is why there is need for harmonisation meeting/session, so as to have everyone on the same page and table. Section 2: Opening an account ii. The edits made are not material to the extend that they require consensus, edits already made are ok Mr. Chairman, I think, every decision of FC deserves to have a relative consensus, so that no one will tomorrow claim sidelined. I pray we are not heading towards that. The OP including the Charter have means of taking decision sir. Section 3: Use of constituency bank account Edits done by Farzaneh seem to be accomodative with me Sorry sir, I do not think so. Personalising and customising Operating Procedure the way she proposed to PIR is not ideal. Like I asked what happens if tomorrow there is funding support from a funder more sympathic to NPOC, do we have to change the OP again and what happens if we have PIR and another still with NPOC co-funding. We have to be a neutral as possible so as to accommodate any funder at all.

Whereas I pointed out why we should NOT personalise our OP to a donor. I remember informing such clauses are needed in MoU not OP. I also asked what happens if the funders are sympathetic to NPOC against NCUC, none of you provided an answer, hence I saw that as greatly unresolved. There was also the question of What happens if we have PIR and another still with NPOC co-funding? We have to be neutral as possible so as to accommodate any funder at all. We must be wary of introducing ambiguities, because we are likely to return here OP for further guide/information when it's approved by EC. I am glad to put it on record again that you DON'T personalise operating procedures to a given funder, it's like a subtle notes of interpretation of a charter for safe running of an organisation which in this case is tripartite in nature and should not be because a party now have upper hand or is favoured. That is why I left it with hope that when we agree with our C's chairs and equally observers here, then it could be resolved based on collective bargaining and understanding. I prefer to resolve issues very clear to me than resetting same as unresolved bearing in mind that someone or something is accommodative can be misleading depending who is interpreting it and may be with more information better understanding can prevail. And the way forward on this precise issues.

Lets leave the way Farzaneh has amended it iv. The FC does not manage constituency funds I really do not know what you mean here. Are you referencing the oversight as contained in the OP. This is why there is need for harmonisation meeting/session, so as to have everyone on the same page and table. Section 2: Opening an account ii. The edits made are not material to the extend that they require consensus, edits already made are ok Mr. Chairman, I think, every decision of FC deserves to have a relative consensus, so that no one will tomorrow claim sidelined. I pray we are not heading towards that. The OP including the Charter have means of taking decision sir. Section 3: Use of constituency bank account Edits done by Farzaneh seem to be accomodative with me Sorry sir, I do not think so. Personalising and customising Operating Procedure the way she proposed to PIR is not ideal. Like I asked what happens if tomorrow there is funding support from a funder more sympathic to NPOC, do we have to change the OP again and what happens if we have PIR and another still with NPOC co-funding. We have to be a neutral as possible so as to accommodate any funder at all.

Multiple times. I had a language there that said when someone else other than pir is the donor thwy can choose the constituency they want to send the funds to. There is a language in the document. We can make it generic and just say the funder can choose where to send the money to. I don't agree with having an MOU between constituency and treasurer. It's too formal it's unenforceable it's ineffective. some questions are being asked multiple times and I have been repeating my answers and had to reiterate some points several times. so you just don't agree with Thato and I on these issues. You can put my language back and flag that you do not agree with it and suggest a compromise. The reason why we need to talk to those who wrote the charter is to understand the rationale of having an FC in the first place. Perhaps you'll be convinced that FCs obligations are really limited. As you know NCSG EC has to approve the operating procedures. It is very likely that in its current state it will be rejected. I am trying to help but I am really running out of suggestions.

I will be away from my laptop today but if needed will finalise the OP with Remmy for fast track this process. Apologies for not being able to respond to your emails today, as mentioned, I have a family affairI need to address, thanks. Have a great weekend. Thato Mfikwe. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.-------- Original message --------From: farzaneh badii Date: 14/07/2018 10:54 (GMT+02:00) To: NCSG Finance Committee Subject: Re: [NCSG-FC] [DRAFT-2] NCSG-FC Operating Procedures v2 first clean copy I answered your question on the doc remmy. Multiple times.? I had a language there that said when someone else other than pir is the donor thwy can choose the constituency they want to send the funds to. There is a language in the document. We can make it generic and just say the funder can choose where to send the money to. I don't agree with having an MOU between constituency and treasurer. It's too formal it's unenforceable it's ineffective.? some questions are being asked multiple times and I have been repeating my answers and had to reiterate some points several times.? so you just don't agree with Thato and I on these issues. You can put my language back and flag that you do not agree with it and suggest a compromise. ? The reason why we need to talk to those who wrote the charter is to understand the rationale of having an FC in the first place. Perhaps you'll be convinced that FCs obligations are really limited.? As you know NCSG EC has to approve the operating procedures. It is very likely that in its current state it will be rejected.? I am trying to help but I am really running out of suggestions.? On Sat, Jul 14, 2018 at 4:24 AM Remmy Nweke wrote: Apologies people, I hope we are not being misunderstood here. Whereas I pointed out why we should NOT personalise our OP to a donor. I remember informing such clauses are needed in MoU not OP. I also asked what happens if the funders are sympathetic to NPOC against NCUC, none of you provided an answer, hence I saw that as greatly unresolved.? There was also the question of??What happens if we have PIR and another still with NPOC co-funding? We have to be neutral as possible so as to accommodate any funder at all. We must be wary of introducing ambiguities, because we are likely to return here OP for further guide/information when it's approved by EC. I am glad to put it on record again that you DON'T personalise operating procedures to a given funder, it's like a subtle notes of interpretation of a charter for safe running of an organisation which in this case is tripartite in nature and should not be because a party now have upper hand or is favoured. That is why I left it with hope that when we agree with our C's chairs and equally observers here, then it could be resolved based on collective bargaining and understanding. I prefer to resolve issues very clear to me than resetting same as unresolved bearing in mind that someone or something is accommodative can be misleading depending who is interpreting it and may be with more information better understanding can prevail. And the way forward on this precise issues.

This is why there is need for harmonisation meeting/session, so as to have everyone on the same page and table. Section 2: Opening an accountii. The edits made are not material to the extend that they require consensus, edits already made are okMr. Chairman, I think, every decision of FC deserves to have a relative consensus, so that no one will tomorrow claim sidelined. I pray we are not heading towards that. The OP including the Charter have means of taking decision sir. Section 3: Use of constituency bank accountEdits done by Farzaneh seem to be accomodative with me Sorry sir, I do not think so. Personalising and customising Operating Procedure the way she proposed to PIR is not ideal. Like I asked what happens if tomorrow there is funding support from a funder more sympathic to NPOC, do we have to change the OP again and what happens if we have PIR and another still with NPOC co-funding. We have to be a neutral as possible so as to accommodate any funder at all.

I am precisely interested in ensuring fair engagement, so do a pointer to the ones you and Thato had an agreement on and it will be taken as resolve. I also reworked some as he proposed with hope that will make same better sense. Why do you intend inviting supposed drafters of NCSG charter? As far as this charter is concerned they do not have any privilege of decision so why that route. If there are issues we can resolve with voting as contained in charter.

Personally I do not have problems with such as long as I know I put in my best and every individual honestly and it's on record. There is no one who will follow things the way this FC including we all did in the last few week's since Panama that will not feel your pains. So know we are all in it together.

Going through historical data and communication of the FC will help in identifying issues that need to be addressed amongst other things and how much progress has been done. https://lists.ncsg.is/pipermail/ncsg-fc/ You will also note that the issue of the NCSG bank account, attendance of ICANN meetings and insight into constituency spending have been on the FC agenda before, so it should not be a surprise when we bring this up. I also submit to you to consider if the FC can plan a session for ICANN 63 as a call for session has been sent to the NCSG-DISCUSS mailing list already. Obviously we need to build an agenda and submit to the EC, any ideas on how we can start working on this? Thato Mfikwe. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I don't know what Thato means by " *Looking forward to your thoughts, Maryam wants to submit a request on our behalf by Friday and of course it will be subject to the entire NCSG EC approval." * Maryam is asking whether you want to 1. have a Finance Committee Session, during AGM 2. If so, what is the agenda. Why should this be submitted to NCSG EC for approval? Does the charter say NCSG EC has to approve FC meetings' agenda? As to the agenda, is this the agenda of Finance Committee F2F meeting or is this the plan of FC activities in ICANN 63? Because Maryam really needs the agenda of the Finance Committee face to face meeting in order to book it, 90 minute or 60 minutes? what are you gonna discuss, who are you gonna invite, etc As other points, why does FC have to present in NCSG outreach meetings? NCSG outreach is about telling newcomers/fellows/attendees what we do policy-wise and what our mission is and encourage them to join. what the FC does is least of their worries, we can just tell them Finance Committee is in charge of finances at NCSG! They are not really donors to be able to get money from them. If you mean presenting the work during NCSG open session which will happen in AGMs, ok. but perhaps a shorter period (10-15 mins) in NCSG open meeting for presentation would suffice since FC wants to ask for a slot to meet f2f. (as I said I don't think FC needs to meet face to face if the FC members are not going to be already there, in the past some FC members were councilors and had funding to go and/or chairs of the constituencies so they could attend in person. no one got funding to go to ICANN meetings for FC activities ever.) I totally disagree with what Thato is saying below: '- Attending an ICANN meeting (any meeting to be clear), will help the FC > keep up with discussions around ICANN Budgets, Reserve funds and other > funds kept by ICANN, these will ease the communication with ICANN finance > and other potential external funders for fundraising purposes and ensuring > C's and the SG receive fair and equivalent." If you need meetings with ICANN staff they will be more than happy to arrange it with you online through adobe, they have done it before with the previous FC. If FC wants to look at what ICANN allocates regarding funds it can check their annual budget and other documents. Attending policy and outreach meeting to discuss finance matters won't be possible, they are short meetings about policy and outreach. Fundraising at ICANN meetings? FC does not have a fund raising plan. It is one of its first responsibilities to come up with one. And in any fundraising plan that is out there for NCSG, I will tell you that ICANN meetings are not the hotspot to raise funds. There are many issues associated with fundraising activities that have to be discussed before we say we will do fundraising at ICANN meetings. As to the below: It is not helpful for members to take FC issues to the public mailing list > although anyone can see mail threads of the FC, can we please avoid > opposing each other because we all have different views and as leaders we > need to *avoid falling on to the trap of insubordination* because it will > always pose problems to the proper functioning of the FC, it seems like > this also needs to be repeated, as it seems like the FC is in competition > with itself. > Thato, I want consensus to happen. I want us to come to a conclusion. But I don't think operating procedure draft was done in a manner that could achieve that. First of all, Remmy's second draft as a penholder had kept most of "the original language" he had put in there, despite having had been flagged by me, commented on and argued about.He did not resolve all the comments. Penholder has to respond and resolve all the comments but if not possible, then the penholder has to keep the comments of the flagged parts and not just resolve and keep the original language. The flagged parts and the comments should have been shared with the members for two reasons: I do not have to repeat myself and then forget some part 2. for people to see that we had disagreements and had conversations about them and see what their opinion is. There is nothing to hide about that. I had to go through the document and again say why I did not agree with some parts. And am I mistaken that you decided to share the document without asking us on a Sunday deciding yourself to give them 3 weeks to review while we really didn't have agreement on that either? So we need to do the process right. These are lessons to be learned: 1. The second draft should not resolve or delete comments that have not had been agreed on. I see no problem with sharing drafts of the penholder with the members from the very beginning even. The finance committee does not have many members. We need others points of views and knowledge. Traps of insubordination? Are you saying I disobeyed FC orders? If you did not mean that, then I don't know what you mean. If you mean I should not have done something FC told me not to do, I am sorry but we work with consensus. When there is no consensus I try to find consensus, if I cannot find consensus then I surely record my objection publicly. Especially with a 3 people committee. You can do the same. Thato said > The charter has provisions on how decision can be made within the FC if > members cannot reach consensus but we do not want to go to that route > because we want an environment conducive to collaboration and harmony, but > if needs it be, we will have to visit the charter to obtain direction and > guide incase of contention of ideas or perspectives, no one person or > individual FC member has authority to dictate or intentionally circumvent > activities or decisions of the FC but it is the entire FC itself that > collectively makes decisions.

I explained my reasons why I shared it. There are so many things that are wrong with this process drafting the procedure. I have not in one single committee at NCSG seen so much resistance to share documents that are in draft with the members. I frankly don't think FC can make a decision on not sharing documents and not being open. We need to make some ground rules for how to come up with documents, this FC does not really follow the usual practice. 1. Penholder drafts, FC comments, modifies 2. Penholder resolves comments, accept modifications and when does not accept the modification, does not resolve them in the second draft, lets the conversation to be there for members. penholder can bring the issues to the FC lists to discuss and see if it can be resolved 3. Penholder does not keep the original language that has been objected to without any remarks. 4. Members should be able to send communications to the FC mailing list any time they want, the moderator cannot stop that unless for justified reasons and the document should be shared with them from the beginning. 5. Members should be given ample time at least 3 to 4 weeks to comment on the operating procedures Farzaneh On Tue, Jul 17, 2018 at 6:17 PM Remmy Nweke wrote: > Hi Farzaneh > Please can you explain what you mean by "Because I cannot." > Thanks > > On Tue, Jul 17, 2018 at 8:00 PM farzaneh badii > wrote: > >> can everyone already go to this meeting (do you have funding?)? >> Because I cannot. >> >> >> Farzaneh >> >> >> On Tue, Jul 17, 2018 at 2:58 PM Remmy Nweke wrote: >> >>> Thanks Mr Chairman, >>> Outline well noted and is ok by me.

The FC needs to be visible in NCSG activities, not only PC activities or initiatives. Or maybe I was supposed to refer to it as inreach? - Nothing in my last email talks about fundraising but I mentioned that the FC needs to keep upto date with discussions around budgets, monies kept by ICANN, for instance, currently there is nobody reporting on new gtld on Auction Proceeds or participating or reporting on the respective CCWG - Meeting with ICANN finance online or anywhere will be very helpful and ICANN budgets are not clear on SO and AC allocations, so a meeting with ICANN staff is paramount - Again, we are in no competition, if anyone wants to undertake a task, they are free to propose this without any reservation and the FC will collectively make a final decision - If we do not reach consensus, the Charter provides guide on how to make decisions, going public is an individual attempt to defy provisions in the Charter, if everytime we do not all agree on something and we decide to go public as a result, what image will this give to the NCSG membership "That the FC is in disagreement with itself?", is that what we want for the FC? - I think we need to discuss your ground rules, I do not understand what you mean about so much resistance because I commented on your decision to share the OP working document which was a basis for creating the actual draft OP. The difference is huge and you know very well that the OP was under development by Remmy and sharing a document that is not complete is sending wrong signals about the FC, looking as if we are disorganised. No matter how you can explain yourself, it is wrong, anyone who wants to follow the FC mailing list is free to do so. We need to accept while still early that not every idea we have will be supported by the next person or two, failure to accept this truth will result in disgrantled members of the FC but as leaders we should not oppose different views, especially by the majority or maybe some leadership styles are outdated or not relevant within ICANN communities? My proposal: Farzaneh, can you become the penholder for the draft OPafter receiving public comments before our submission to the EC? Why: Logistics involved with sharing 2 documents can be cumbersome because working with the clean document was an agreement by the FC, this draft was supposed to be sent on Friday but was released on Sunday for comment after Remmy made edits, after youyrrecommendation which I also supported. According to my opinion, the working document of the FC will make the comment process very complex and bear in mind that the FC will attempt to resolve all comments on the final Draft OP I shared before submission to the EC for approval, thanks.

As I said we are not in an emergency situation nothing really is falling apart and you could have waited. also, I am getting super confused now. The link Remmy has shared at the beginning of this thread is the link that contains our comments and his corrections, it's a better version of the clean draft he had shared previously and I had raised concerns about (check the thread [NCSG-FC] [DRAFT-2] NCSG-FC Operating Procedures v2 first clean copy ) . While the link you shared with the members is not the document on this thread but the document that was Remmy's first attempt on clean up under Procedures v2 first clean copy. This could just be a mistake and I apologize from Remmy for having thought he did not make the changes I raised on the other thread after I had asked him to do so. This document on this thread still needs some work, but it is far better than the previous one that was shared with the members ... . But now we are going to confuse everyone if we share another doc ... So I don't know how to resolve this now but tomorrow is another day!

On the Facilitating Faculty/people needed: FC members and not member - considering that the members represent two constituencies (NPOC and NCUC) On agenda Part 1: No. 2. kindly correct 'and Finance Committee" spelling. 3. I expect more time on the Q & A, may be 10mins 4. I did not understand what is to be merged as we cannot merge the Charter and OP, but harmonise areas of difference/interests as may be have been highlighted/suggested from ongoing comments. In addition, possibly seek volunteers to help out in that and then reduce the time from 15mins to 10mins and add the difference in timing to Q & A as I expect more interactions. on Part 2: Can we change No. 8 to "Leveraging ICANN Finance for NCSG work - By Staff - 7 minutes and 9 to "Remarks by GNSO Rep" - 5 minutes 10. I will suggest merger of Q & A in No. 7 with this - 8 mins. *NB:* Can we accommodate in the benefits, need to also participate in the ICANN AGM open session, knowing fully well the importance of business of AGM including presentation of an annual report containing information for stakeholders about the organisation's performance and strategy, so as to afford FC to follow strategically/familiarise the process and strategically plug-in. FC members will equally participate in the ExCom of their respective Cs to close ranks with their EC. This is a good plan Mr. Chairman and I hope my input is helpful.

It doesn't matter much if me, you or Joan have an agreement. It matters if NCSG Chair that's as she can oppose the doc on the main members list, as she did. So I guess for now is trying to find a way NCSG Chair finds the procedures are workable so you can move forward. This would be my suggestion.

NCSG doesn't make decis ons on her ? ? own. We have an ec that has to approve th e operating procedures . EC has reps from constituencies. I am not opposed to the procedures. I don't agree with some parts of it. As an fc member I will make comments and contribution . on the mailing list I made observations as an FC member. Please note that the charter says: *2.6.6. NCSG-??FC Observers* ? Any observer to the NCSG-??FC will have full participation rights except will not be counted in any consensus process or vote. ? Elected or appointed representative from NCSG Candidate Constituencies will be given observer status. I think the chairs of both constituencies are observers (it's not according to the charter that they automatically become observers but they attended our call and I don't have a problem if they remain observers) . Observers have all the rights to comment and participate, talk about the agenda etc. they just dont get to vote or be counted in consensus. So if the chairs have any comments, feel free to make. FC can also invite others to be members of this group. I encourage that, we can do things more easily. Some members with finance/fundraising knowledge would help out tremendously. ?? I will suggest a way forward ? ? soon to the FC. ?

URL: From thatomfikwe at gmail.com Thu Jul 19 22:26:14 2018 From: thatomfikwe at gmail.com (Thato Mfikwe) Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2018 21:26:14 +0200 Subject: [NCSG-FC] FW: FC meeting at ICANN63 Barcelona In-Reply-To: References: <33CDB08D-8FFB-4F2D-AAC5-F589419C45C3@icann.org> Message-ID: Hi Farzaneh, The OP would make a good discussion with members as currently, it seems like it won't be approved before ICANN 63 unless all contentions are resolved, which I doubt. So looking at contention areas would be advantageous and of course everything that will be done in ICANN 63 will be discussed in detail by the FC before then and this exercise will help with invitation of members to support the activities of the FC as recommended. One last confirmation, if I may, according to your experience, do you think this FC plan for ICANN 63 can help steer the FC forward because we cannot ignore sections of the OP where there is strong contentions like the bank account, justification of constituency equitable funding, participation, financial reporting and auditing amongst other challenges that may affect the work of the FC? In your way forward, please also elaborate more on how the FC can facilitate a more impactful and progressive meeting based on the proposed ICANN 63 agenda and plan. Thato Mfikwe.

We just have to take the issues out and pose them as questions. See what they think. Then come to a conclusion. I never did operating procedures in face to face meetings. They were all online - it can happen. If OP is not done by Barcelona and FC members are attending already then I think it's good to have a meeting. I am going to extract the questions that has to be answered, post here and then to the mailing list.

Its part of the way forward. Much appreciated. Remmy On 19 Jul 2018 8:08 pm, "farzaneh badii" wrote: Thato Please note that the chair of ? ? NCSG doesn't make decis ons on her ? ? own. We have an ec that has to approve th e operating procedures . EC has reps from constituencies. I am not opposed to the procedures. I don't agree with some parts of it. As an fc member I will make comments and contribution . on the mailing list I made observations as an FC member. Please note that the charter says: *2.6.6. NCSG-??FC Observers* ? Any observer to the NCSG-??FC will have full participation rights except will not be counted in any consensus process or vote. ? Elected or appointed representative from NCSG Candidate Constituencies will be given observer status. I think the chairs of both constituencies are observers (it's not according to the charter that they automatically become observers but they attended our call and I don't have a problem if they remain observers) . Observers have all the rights to comment and participate, talk about the agenda etc. they just dont get to vote or be counted in consensus. So if the chairs have any comments, feel free to make. FC can also invite others to be members of this group. I encourage that, we can do things more easily. Some members with finance/fundraising knowledge would help out tremendously. ?? I will suggest a way forward ? ? soon to the FC. ?

I'd think the same in NPOC and NCUC. So you can either run on one of those processes and mention that you would like the support to help jumpstart the FC Committee. But it is a criteria too to be involved in policy so maybe you can enroll in some WGs or PDPs and mention, same for Remmy. Another thing would be creating a whole new process for FC members only to have travel support. I'm guessing that falls again under the hierarchic structure of NCSG. You have to propose to NCSG Chair, to take it to NCSG EC. Your committee is hosted within NCSG so it's up to this leadership.

I think it's important for such an important Committee to have the opportunity to present the plans and build relationships.

I think its important to commend that and to urge and pray that whoever takes over from you both learn this rope for the growth and unity of NCSG constituencies. Farzaneh's support in strengthening the process cannot be over-looked. It takes a vision to achieve what have been achieved under her leadership in NCSG. However, I really do not think FC has to be shopping around for opportunities to engage the community unless the best is not expected of FC, because I do not also see how you can be in an ICANN meeting with a funding from another working group and not be committed to the WG and eventually not meeting the optimal mandate of FC to that meeting, hence, I will earnestly urge NCSG EC via the chair to provide an enabling environment for FC to explore its focused mandate, especially in following the money within ICANN and apparent networking required beyond mere information gathering where the money is to translate to dividends for NCSG. There is more to human elements in networking than mere writing e-mails. Mind you, here we are talking about funding, so we must realise that definitely there is huge difference in *face*-to-*face *engagement and mediated *communication*. I will solicit the support of NCSG leadership (via Farzaneh) in this regard to support the current FC desire to work and make its own contributions to the growth and seeing improved processes within NCSG, to assist FC and NCSG mainstream ICANN finance as dreamt and deem necessary for the benefit of NCSG and NCSG-FC we want. So, I hereby reiterate that we are much better as a united team both in FC and NCSG by seeing and availing every NCSG Committee an enabling environment it require to excel based on its work plan. Either by omission or commission, FC seems alienated for so long and we must join forces now to ensure this FC works and for the benefit of NCSG in all its entirety. Best of the day and thanks in anticipation to all for your continuous support.

Many NCSG members have expressed their opinion about FC having to travel to meetings, many have said it is not necessary, the charter doesn't mandate it, ICANN does not consider budget for it and I also think automatically re-allocating to FC is not necessary either. NCSG EC gets 3 travel slots, one goes to the chair, one goes to NPOC EC rep, one goes to NCUC EC rep (they decide among themselves). If the chair cannot go, or EC members cannot go, the allocation will take place based on NCSG travel re-allocation polict. ICANN has not considered any travel slot for FC. NCSG EC does not have any other money. If any EC slot becomes available we publicize on the mailing list and all members can apply. As I have said, and some of our members have said FC does not need to be in meetings in person. I have carried out many financial tasks remotely successfully, as well as fundraising. I do not suggest at any point FC be set aside money automatically to go to ICANN meetings. Those who have fundraising experience and are a part of FC know how to raise money for civil society, by having connection, being able to go to meetings themselves etc. The function does not need the face-to-face in person meetings. If FC members happen to be at ICANN meeting (through a fellowship, being granted travel through other means etc) then great. Otherwise they are not entitled to, and should not be set aside a budget. If the constituencies according to their rules and procedures would like to fund their FC members, I have nothing to do with that decision. Other than the chair, councilors and constituency chairs, no committee member is entitled to travel nor gets automatic funding allocation at NCSG. It is either. FC is here to raise funds and find resources. If it does so successfully, then we might get to a level where we can fund them to go to missions on fundraising. That time has not come yet. As someone who has been involved with financial matters at NCUC and NCSG, I do not see the need for FC to be onsite at ICANN meetings to carry out its duties. We can write donors documents, project documents, document our achievements and fundraise outside of ICANN meetings (which I believe that is where we should be fundraising) and keep members updated through webinars. We extensively discussed this. I don't think in person meetings are needed except when FC members are there for other reasons. We don't have the resources to allocate at NCSG level to FC members to attend meetings. Constituencies can decide their own internal matter. This does not mean that FC's work is not important. It merely means the nature of the job does not require them to be on site for ICANN meetings to move things forward. This also does not mean that FC members, if an opportunity arises for travel slot application, would be automatically rejected. They will be assessed based on already established criteria. I will be at a work event for the next two days and will not be able to regularly respond to email.

There are different interpretations of the "audit" function of FC. . What does the word "audit" mean in the charter? Should NCSG FC have an "audit" function and what would that function entail?

URL: From remmyn at gmail.com Fri Jul 27 17:30:13 2018 From: remmyn at gmail.com (Remmy Nweke) Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2018 15:30:13 +0100 Subject: [NCSG-FC] Questions and comments/current state of the FC OP In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Response to Farzaneh on draft Operating Procedures for NCSG-FC Thanks Farzaneh for coming up with the questions and comments. Please find my responses highlighted. These are the major points of discussion on FC draft operating procedures (I might have missed something, so it's not an exhaustive list) 1.The charter states that FC should: "Fulfill any other accounting, auditing or other prescribed financial requirements as set by the ICANN Board of Directors for organizations within the ICANN structure." There are different interpretations of the "audit" function of FC. . What does the word "audit" mean in the charter? Should NCSG FC have an "audit" function and what would that function entail? [those who have commented on the document believed that NCSG FC does not have an audit function] Well, in handling this comments you tried but seems to focus more on what are your thoughts and projecting those who supported it than focusing on real issues devoid of sentiment. The way you presented this item seems to be the only comments received were from those who thinks along your line of thought. Other voices were not brought into your summary which is not good enough. Based on the point you are making here, it will require review/amendment of the NCSG Charter and if anyone chooses to argue from point of ignorance or deliberately joining the say 'No' queue, we should be able to differentiate that here from the meat of what that session tend to achieve without personal sentiments. At least you know I did not insert that in the charter. Therefore we need to support processes that engender accountability, openness and transparency. For instance, one of the requirements from ICANN is for organizations like NCSG must submit an annual financial statement and this cannot be done in isolation and I am yet to see any report of such since our charter was adopted in 2011. 2. The necessity of FC members to Attend ICANN meetings in person Do FC members have to attend ICANN meetings to be able to carry out their obligations? i.e. should a travel budget be allocated to them for this purpose? [Members who commented do not think that FC should have to attend ICANN meetings in person, Remmy disagrees on the doc] Note that there were supports also from both within the FC and community and cannot be only me supporting or disagreeing with those who disagree with the session. These I think should also be reflected and taken into account and possibly we can vote on that as FC. I have provided instances too to help their understanding. I may not be in FC for life, but we must provide enabling environment for the FC members to deliver on their mandates. The chairman has also presented FC needs especially the fact that from the comments people are not looking at building networks to improve the fiscal state of NCSG but merely being sentimental to how to empower FC to deliver its assignments, which was why outreach by FC becomes imperative. 3. Should FC provide oversight management/monitoring of its constituencies and propose a budget for its constituencies? [members who commented think not and that it's outside of its remit] In my response to this in the document and before now, I had buttressed this point with Charter sessions supporting the insertion. And I think we have to draw a line between what is contained in the charter and mere comments. For now the charter should be upheld pending when such is amended. 4. Members raised: There should be accountability measures predicted in the charter for the finance committee. What are our plans to address this issue? >From my desk and am sure the chair will speak to this too, the current FC plan is to shore-up the funds made available for NCSG to carry more activities and we believe that mainstreaming ICANN.org is key to achieving this so we don't work across purposes and following the money so to say and extend this drive to outside world, hence the need to support FC and bring about more members involvement in the activities of our Cs and FC precisely. I also reminded us not to and stop hitherto the relegation of NCSG FC for whatever reason, but rather create enabling environment for it to thrive without undue distractions or undermining influence. The fact is that NCSG has been in violation of its charter since the latest charter of 2011 as far as some FC functions are concerned. This we intend to correct. 5. Allocation of funds. based on Remmy's suggestion of 40%NCUC-40%NPOC-20%FC was not received well by those who commented, so I removed it and added the previous language I had suggested. *Dear Farzaneh, it is inimical for you to take that position when it had not been deliberated by FC as suggested, which is one of the items FC was anticipated to deliberate on and fine a *way forward. By that removal, you are taking decision without due process. I am sure there should be better options or fine tuning of that session than replacing it. For instance, do you have a means of covering bank charges when it occurs from outside funds received by NCSG and your alignment in the formula as shown above does not depict that actually FC proposed 20% is meant to be NCSG-FC. I think it gives an ambiguity meaning there and needed to be corrected as FC does not exist in isolation but NCSG-FC. 6. SVP is a complicated term, I removed it, members who commented agreed on its removal. Please what makes SPV - Special Purpose Vehicle,* not SVP* complicated terms. It's a term used in financial sector as makeshift to bridge a gap, which in this case exists because of difficulties in NCSG-FC living up to the charter mandate to open a bank account or neutral bank plan. Please tell us what makes it complicated? All we need is to agree to the terms of its usage as earlier explained. Its not true and enough that members agreed for it to be removed. What are the alternative options they are proposing to make the process more transparent and enshrine accountability acceptable to both Cs and NCSG? The truth is like I noted earlier it's only FC that knows where it pitches except if we are to remove that mandate on the charter. Hence there is need to have the charter reviewed as soon as possible. Is not enough to sound off a session, ask out from financial gurus on how such could be handled and let us arrive at best practices that is good to drive the process. This was one of the reason we wanted to get ICANN attend proposed session to address some of these issues, but it did not get your support. Like I noted, most of the comments or questions you supposedly decided on should be done by FC, not you as the penholder and that had been one key reason why we need to meet on this after the comments period has expired to decide on them as a team, not an individual.

The FC should be able to appoint and external auditor. I*f members think the FC should not do the audit function, does it now mean the Charter must change? For me, I would sat the FC needs to do and promote the right thing irrespective of unjustified opposition or uninformed opinions because it seems like opposing comments are challenging stipulations of the Charter*. Internal auditing on the other side help the organisation achieve its objectives and is concerned with evaluating and improving effectiveness of risk management, risk control and governance processes, and ensures reliability of financial and management reporting. The audit process follows 6 phases: 1. Agreement on term of engagement - articulation of responsibilities of involved parties and the objective of the audit, access to information and records 2. Preparing an audit plan - planning the audit based on information contained in the documents received 3. Scheduling an open meeting - with management and key admin staff to present the audit scope 4. Fieldwork - taking information from the open meeting to finalize an audit plan. Field work includes but is not limited to, review of procedures and adequacy of internal controls, checking compliance with procedures and policies and discussing problem with the organisation as they arise. 5. Drafting a report - a detailed report of findings of the audit with errors, posting problems, authorized but not yet paid expenses and other discrepancies This report must also have recommendations 6. Closing meeting - discussion of the report, soliciting response from management 7. Following up with management to check if recommendations made were implemented > > 2.

SVP has legal meanings, not suitable for this document. As the penholder would you like to change it? I will start not taking accusations of not telling the truth lightly or being inimical etc and turn a blind eye on them from now on. There have been accusations that Thato and you have been under personal attack (as expressed on a mailing list) . This has to be corrected. Just because I disagree with you does not mean you are under personal attack. You are leaders, take the criticzm and act accordingly.

Thanks again for your responses. In finance or financial report, and based on the Charter specification, financial reporting/statement does not preclude any particular income but inclusive. So, whether ICANN reported on it from point of expenditures, there is nothing to show that from the NCSG end or financial books that the funds or income were judiciously used according to ICANN books and that is why simple statement is required to state NCSG position among other inflows/income and expenditures. Audit does not mean two things in Finance or Accounting but simple examination of the books, ask relevant questions and get clarifications where necessary. Its not a judgement desk, just in fulfillment of a process inline with guidelines. No one should be intimidated by word "audit". Our current leaders may be doing well now but how do you ensure checks and balances of the books of accounts. 2. Joan was not the only one, Renata also did, are you now saying they are not members of NCSG because they are chair of Cs today among others? 3. The truth is that Charter interpretation is good but does not require drafters to do so. And why I rejected that idea is that the current responsibility as far as the Charter is concerned including near right interpretation and implimentation of right decisions does not require drafters engagement and as far as I am concerned is belittling to say the least. At least it was not written in some foreign language but English and I am sure we all understand English well enough to interprete it. What I think we should do is to have a meeting, discuss any session, and vote on them and move on. Whatever is the outcome should bind us all and case closed including the sharing formula, which was what I suggested abni tio. 5. I did not want to reword it as I thought we should discuss it first and stated so in my submission before it was shared for comments, which was also what I canvassed we do before sharing but you refused and now instead of us discussing it by taking our broader understanding and comments into consideration where relevant, you removed it. What options do you offer to answer the questions I raised than just removing those contentious sessions? It can be reworded based on the agreed terms by FC eventually since the terms I proposed was not ok by you and few of our colleagues.of which I have given an idea how to go about it. Points of note here is the (1) sharing formula and then (2) method; be fund shared to Cs as fund come or do Cs apply. Non of these were discussed as suggested and that is why are here going forth and back. 6. I also know in some of my other lives, we have used SPV - Special Purpose Vehicle, and not SVP, probably you meant a different thing which I am not aware of; and it worked well for the multi-group. If you have alternative, can we have it, simple, not mere saying its complicated. now it has legal means. Does anyone expect FC to do somethings that are not legal? Like I noted, once we agree on way forward, it could be reworded, its one of the puzzles we intend solve maybe with ICANN legal, may be since we cant have session to hear from ICANN legal and community, we can discuss it via FC meeting focusing on alternate options with ICANN legal in attendance. I have said this before FC functions are tripod assignment (Financial secretary, Treasurer and auditing). You have the mandate to call for review of charter all things equal. I really dont take note of accusations, they are bound to come, the only thing is ensure you have a good and clean slate. Thanks for reminding us to take criticism. I am sure we are do so madam chair with your support. I see it as feedback. Like I said earlier, sending it to list, does not solve bulk of the problems. The bulk stops with the FC, except if I did not understand the Charter well. Whatever is done under FC, its members/leaders take responsibility including accollades and knocks. I hope you understand me better now.

URL: From farzaneh.badii at gmail.com Sun Jul 29 07:33:14 2018 From: farzaneh.badii at gmail.com (farzaneh badii) Date: Sun, 29 Jul 2018 00:33:14 -0400 Subject: [NCSG-FC] Questions and comments/current state of the FC OP In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: I only took into account the comments made on the Google doc for now. You can share the questions and see what others think. Fc members are appointed to this positions. I can't unfortunately work anymore on the document.The penholder should not be so attached to the original language he provided. Despite being even disagreed with by two fc members, this keeps happening. I provided alternatives for the loaded word of SPV (made a typo in previous email, mistakes happen) it should be removed and I provided reasons and it was supported. Let's have a meeting. But if we are going to argue over the same things that I have argued over multiple times provided reasonings and provided alternative language and it was put up for public comment and again members on Google doc agreed, then I'm afraid even a meeting won't be fruitful. Unless there are new solutions by other FC members. Also I am concerned that other FC member refrain from inviting those involved with drafting ncsg charter to being their rational and opinions. Dont forget that NCSG EC has to review the operating procedures. If anything goes against the charter now or not clear, then EC might not approve it.Please don't frame this as a threat as you did in previous communications, I did try to help, and spent a lot of time on this so doesn't mean I have not been cooperative or not wanting FC to succeed, it doesn't matter who would be chair in the future, EC members will look at this document critically. Another note: if this OP gets approved with no substantive changes, its enforcement in the future will see challenges if it is not in line with the charter and unreasonable. I am trying to help. My efforts might be framed as blo.cking progress. But I have had to experience with drafting multiple ops and I have no skin in the game And want things go smoothly. You can either choose to look at alternatives and another lens, or just emphasize your previous positions.

URL: From thatomfikwe at gmail.com Sun Jul 29 23:01:54 2018 From: thatomfikwe at gmail.com (Thato Mfikwe) Date: Sun, 29 Jul 2018 22:01:54 +0200 Subject: [NCSG-FC] Questions and comments/current state of the FC OP In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Hi all, Thanks for all these comments, they bring a clear picture on issues surrounding the FC, I therefore propose for purposes of avoiding back and forth arguments on what we need to do, that we: 1. Create a google form that will be shared with the community containing all OP draft and NCSG charter questions that we still don''t have consensus on (open for 7 day after completion of the comment process by the community but before submission to the EC) 2. We need to have a way forward regarding areas where 2 or more member agree, we need to also express the minority views in our draft. Below is some of the areas where there is some consensus within the FC, although the community sometimes things otherwise: a. FC performing accounting and auditing functions (Thato and Remmy agree, so this must be contained in the OP but any opposing views should be noted. b. 40/40/20 formula for disbursement of funds (declined by 2 members, Thato and Farzaneh of the FC, with suggestion for the use of application processes, criteria still needs to be set for this). c. Management of constituency finances, is opposed by Farzaneh and Thato but Thato proposes that there should be some level of monitoring through periodic reports. NCSG financial management and monitoring responsibility should be clearly stated on the Draft OP. d. Necessity of FC members to attend the F2F ICANN meetings, 2 members of the FC agree on this (Remmy and Thato), other opposing views must be noted on the draft OP. *It is a concern that there are members within the FC who still hold a strong view that the FC should not be supported to attend ICANN meeting and that attending these meetings cannot assist the FC to meet its obligations and execute its responsibilities, especially given the preliminary stage of development stage of this committee and the tasks that still need to be attended in the interim. Although the Charter clearly states that the FC can attend meeting, of course meetings are not attended for the sake of attending, there needs to be predetermined plans and objectives. * e. Accountability measures of the FC, I will initiate something around that. *@Remmy is response to your question, Bruna and NCUC chair supported the idea of the FC being supported to attend the onsite meetings and emphasizing that the Charter allows this, I hope this is clear.* f. SPV, comments were made to remove certain sections, particularly II and IV with proposal to reword # V to suit comments (the difference is that Farzaneh wants the whole section removed and Remmy is willing to reword the section but not sure if he is willing to accept removal of proposed sections). If we can do these critical amendments listed above, we will be a step closer to resolving OP draft comments and get ready for various meetings with drafters as proposed, community outreach and stakeholder/funder engagement. After the comment process we can run a Google form survey on sections that still need consensus or additional input or comments. Will ask Maryam to set up a Doodle for a meeting sometime this week. @Farzaneh. let's have a bit more patience with each other, once this process is done with, we wont have to revisit these issues for a long time. Everyone has made valuable contributions to this process thus far, we just left with less than 2 months to complete this comment process. Refusing to contribute to activities for whatever reasons related to difficulty in getting along with views and diversity that comes with being in a diverse committee is not acceptable unless if one is incapacitated to do deliver on the task at hand, I don't think anyone is having a pleasure in any of these disagreement but what is essential is taking the FC forward. I agree, that criticism should be expected but not from fellow FC members but from the community itself, to state in response of a message to a FC member that "you have to repeat yourself over and over again" on a community mailing list is demeaning to the character of the FC. Regarding the drafters of the Charter, I do not have a problem with having a meeting with them, but I do not see anything changing unless if they decide to change the Charter for reasons that should be disclosed and due processes should be followed to do this. @Remmy, I ask that we hold a meeting with them and hear their interpretation of the Charter. Personally, I am against the change of the Charter (section 26) in order to protect or suit needs to few people who cannot justify their reasons why it should be changed, furthermore seems like this Charter issues were not raised in the past which creates questions around motives for .emerging questioning of clauses and responsibilities that relate to the FC. @Farzaneh, can you in the meantime list specific issues that you thunk need attention during the said meeting, thanks.

URL: From rafik.dammak at gmail.com Mon Jul 30 01:47:34 2018 From: rafik.dammak at gmail.com (Rafik Dammak) Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2018 07:47:34 +0900 Subject: [NCSG-FC] Questions and comments/current state of the FC OP In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: [Observer] Hi, as I was among those who made comments on OP, I wanted to react (I am an observer in this list as former NCSG chair). 1- to make progress on OP, compromise language and edits should be made in response to comments to find a common ground. I think that is still missing and efforts should be on that front at least for respect for those who made effort and reviewed the document. it should be built on what agreed and having consensus among all FC members. I would suggest that rewording and new language being proposed having a consensus of all FC members. if there are several changes, a new document should be proposed. that should be done before another consultation, otherwise, others and myself included will question what is the value of our input if it was ignored in the first round. So just asking as proposed now doesn't really help. I don't think people want to do arbitration but reviewing a document that has consensus among you and reflects previous comments made by NCSG members. 2- with regard to charter, I believe there is a genuine misinterpretation. I suggest that set back here. I have feeling that keywords were picked up but ignoring the text around which gives needed context. For example, about audit: "Fulfill any other accounting, auditing or other prescribed financial requirements as set by the ICANN Board of Directors for organizations within the ICANN structure." the text indicates that should be done if there are prescribed requirements? did anyone check the existence of such requirements or process? my gut feeling is nobody did and my experience with ICANN is that organization doesn't want to be liable and didn't set any rule for SG/C on that regard in order to not be responsible. For example, it manages any support given to SG/C directly in in-kind form i.e. it doesn't give us fund to book our own travel, same for most of ABRs tightly controlled by staff and when there are payments ask SG/C to do them first to be reimbursed later. ICANN org also refused systematically for many years to do banking for BC regarding the membership dues collection. ICANN org doesn't want to deal with SG/C finance in any way and try to avoid any implication. As you can see the same text can read differently and that is why people legitimately question the current reading that seems stopped before the rest of the bullet point. For constituencies monitoring, it seems even more confusing as what charter mentions regarding constituencies is not directly related to what OP suggests in details. I was involved in the charter process but not directly with regard to drafting. There was context regarding the different sections of charter and were subject to long negotiations. Discussion with main drafters would help but literal reading and/or overinterpretation not. Most of those involved in the discussion didn't suggest any charter amendment, same for the charter drafters. I think the focus is still on drafting OP. I believe that some principles should be agreed on before in order to avoid overengineering this. this is a FC For structure within ICANN, it is not an NGO or big organization and the OP should reflect that. that is all for me to give some suggestions.

I am only insisting we meet and agree on the ones we can, vote on the ones we can't agree on and move on. Not you removing and adding at will.* *What you are talking now I understand, is that you are now ok for a meeting, which was what I suggested abnitio but was rejected by you. Thank God you now see reason for the meeting. The truth is that if we had had that meeting most of the contentious items should have been resolved while we have enough time to accommodate new ideas if they come.* Despite being even disagreed with by two fc members, this keeps happening. > I provided alternatives for the loaded word of SPV (made a typo in previous > email, mistakes happen) it should be removed and I provided reasons and it > was supported. > When you say you provided reasons of alleged "complications" and "legality" are these the alternatives?

So don't blame anyone. Every organisation have their ways of achieving resolution in spite of different opinions and that was my anticipation to save us time but was not heeded before now. Thanks too it's not too late.* Also I am concerned that other FC member refrain from inviting those > involved with drafting ncsg charter to being their rational and opinions. > *I have always objected to that even if others are not commenting. The rationale is distructive and does not show the current leadership both at FC or larger NCSG as capable of delivering or taking decision. And as it was in 2011 and now in 2018 can never be same 7 years after. On less you are suggesting 'judges' should wake up constitution drafters before making a decision on a case? It does not hold waters but belittling.* > > Dont forget that NCSG EC has to review the operating procedures. If > anything goes against the charter now or not clear, then EC might not > approve it. > *Yes, we know EC has that powers, except if that is an inclination it may not be positively received because you are not disposed to it; and as such sounds like a threat. It is already because your body language seems to say that anything you don't agree on will not pass EC. Not sure that is a more healthier way of forewarning a committee if you don't agree with me, forget it. We must learn to place whether FC or NCSG-EC above us, because some day, we shall not be there again, so its better to build strong institutions than strong individuals. I will actually like to see how EC votes on the OP eventually.* Please don't frame this as a threat as you did in previous communications, I did try to help, and spent a lot of time on this so doesn't mean I have not been cooperative or not wanting FC to succeed, it doesn't matter who would be chair in the future, EC members will look at this document critically. > > Another note: if this OP gets approved with no substantive changes, its > enforcement in the future will see challenges if it is not in line with the > charter and unreasonable. > *What kind of challenges are you foreseeing please. Don't mind if you share with us, because we intend to make things better than we met it and this claim negates that. Please share with us those fears. Take for instance, on SPV, normally is backed by Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to ensure its not breached and backed with a structure. If we leave the finance with one group and change leadership tomorrow and they refuse to release the funds, there is no remedy for that in the Charter, so a priviso has to be made to give every party assurances and enabling sense of belonging.* > I am trying to help.
