Well I disagree with any chair being automatically an observer because I think the FC should be able to invite members and observers and chairs involvement with FC should happen as needed.

Farzaneh disagreed that there is a need but provided some suggestions as to how he can approach the issue. Farzi, please list those suggestions 1. The wording of FC members attending AGM was not changed since Thato and Remmy supported it, Farzaneh dissented and will send her dissent. (Is sending a dissent to EC part of the Charter requirement on decision making in NCSG and FC precisely, especially when one does not agree with majority or is it because it still has to go to EC where you preside? What of if FC decision stops at FC. Even with this comment here, is dissent already? I do not think its necessarily so and should not be encouraged). If a decision is taken as Committee despite our various positions, I think it should suffice and be respected, rather than creating impression of a divided house. IMO. We can disagree to agree eventually. Again minority views will also be recorded. You disregarded members comments on this issue and my comments and did not want to come to a reformed language that does not necessarily require FC be in ICANN meetings, is in line with our charter but also if the opportunity arises enables FC to attend ICANN and other meetings. Hence I would like to tell NCSG EC that I don't agree with these provisions that you have passed and that it was not a consensus decision. I have discussed this many many times and I have no desire to continue and I find it quite amusing that you first don't want to come to a compromise and consensus ?and then ask me not to do a dissent. FC is in charge of creating resources for NCSG to do policy. It's not to be a strain on resources. Sorry I thought I sent this on the day of the meeting. Seems like I have not.

I am greatly concerned that some of us are still trying to mislead this committee by interpreting the Charter and FC functions as if they are setting up an adhoc committee. Hence, I decided to share an extract from the charter on whether 'oversight' is part of the role of FC or not and even some suggestion on FC intervention to be on demand from Constituencies. I wish to state that that was not the simple interpretation of the charter which was written in simple English. So, I wonder where the difficulty is coming from. And here is the extract defining FC for our information: "NCSG Finance Committee (NCSG-??FC): The NCSG Finance Committee is responsible for establishing a firm financial footing for the NCSG and administering NCSG funds within a defined framework that meets relevant legal requirements as well as requirements imposed by ICANN. The NCSG-??FC?s responsibilities include fund raising, setting voluntary contribution levels for members, *determining procedures for the distribution of funds, and for monitoring the utilization of funds.* The NCSG-??FC will also be responsible for the Treasurer function. Formation of the NCSG-??FC, its composition, and duties within the NCSG-??FC are set out in Section 2.6." Therefore, I would like to ask, when a given entity is "determining procedures for the distribution of funds, and for monitoring the utilization of funds." What is the closest phrase to that than 'oversight' which must be done with human face. This was the same argument that brought about the insertion of the Section 2.6 into the Operating Procedure to make it clearer and some of us went on to tweak it further in the name of wording. I have explained the issue of bank severally, I do not have another option, except if those rejecting the idea of SPV can come up with one. SPV will save us the trouble of registering yet another entity and search for the trustees and management team outside our leaders as most of us are not in US. What matters to me is transparency and understanding. Yes, we may have that relatively now, what happens when people who have a wide gap of the understanding assumes our current leadership positions. We must be futuristic and think stability of NCSG in general. Lastly, like I had suggested in the past, with the ambiguity in manner of interpretation of charter to our caprices, it will be better to review the charter afresh now that some of the clauses we put their are getting clearer or complicated as some will choose to claim. *@thatomfikwe * I saw the note that myself and Farz resolve some issues on Operating Procedure, that will not work frankly speaking except we make out time for a meeting and take them from page 1 to end and resolve them as a team/meeting procedure allows. That is where we cant agree, a vote can be taken and we progress. We can have one or two meetings before Farz leaves, so it does not sound like someone is waiting for her exit to progress. So, I will suggest you call for a meeting after affecting the corrections you elect to do before now. Starting with doodle will be good. Also, like I pointed out before now, until we recognise the fact that FC is a statutory Committee in NCSG, and accord it full compliment and support, rather than placing it like a subcommittee; we may continue the merry-go-round.

The wording of FC members attending AGM was not changed since Thato and Remmy supported it, Farzaneh dissented and will send her dissent. (Is sending a dissent to EC part of the Charter requirement on decision making in NCSG and FC precisely, especially when one does not agree with majority or is it because it still has to go to EC where you preside? What of if FC decision stops at FC. Even with this comment here, is dissent already? I do not think its necessarily so and should not be encouraged). If a decision is taken as Committee despite our various positions, I think it should suffice and be respected, rather than creating impression of a divided house. IMO. We can disagree to agree eventually. > > Again minority views will also be recorded. > > > > You disregarded members comments on this issue and my comments and did not want to come to a reformed language that does not necessarily require FC be in ICANN meetings, is in line with our charter but also if the opportunity arises enables FC to attend ICANN and other meetings. Hence I would like to tell NCSG EC that I don't agree with these provisions that you have passed and that it was not a consensus decision. I have discussed this many many times and I have no desire to continue and I find it quite amusing that you first don't want to come to a compromise and consensus and then ask me not to do a dissent. FC is in charge of creating resources for NCSG to do policy. It's not to be a strain on resources. > > > > Sorry I thought I sent this on the day of the meeting.

Let this be resolved during Stephanie's term if it can be despite my attempts to resolve them before her arrival it unfortunately seems to be impossible. Discussions been far too offensive to me and the committees knowledge about NCSG and how it functions and the independence of constituencies is poor but at the same time opinionated. A very bad combination. this FC is supposed to be carrying out crucial functions such as ABRS, fundraising, etc for NCSG and help us with building our capacity to do policy. Non of which has been done during this term and it won't be done when the committee itself doesn't have a basic understanding of what NCSG does and how it has functioned in the past to decide about the future and how independence of constitluencies has to be preserved. I rest my case but I have to say when I step down as the chair I will closely monitor this FC since it has a tendency to ignore NCSG members opinions and comments. I will still pay NCSG civicrm out of my pocket and get reimbursed by Icann and hope that Stephanie comes up with a plan for NCSG bank account so that I don't have to continue doing this thankless job.

I would now like to ask that *we formalise (though vote or agreement) the secretarial role within the FC* so that we have a lead penholder in our committee drafts and activities, like the current draft on FC Operational Procedures and this comment which must be submitted within 35 days and of course still solicit community input. This will ease coordination the FC but will still require that we work together and collaborate, *Farzi/Sthepanie *can help and support with this, so will I, hopefully the observers (constituency chairs) will also contribute. *Important NOTE*: I propose Remmy to oversee the drafting process of FC generated and driven public comments and inputs. The secretarial role will further be discussed and agreed upon in our next online meeting, maybe around November sometime. Please provide your comments because we still have to build a community of volunteers and ensure that we retain them within FC activities, currently the 2 volunteers for the PTI and IANA Ops plan and budget comment are: 1. Amadu Yusif - Ghana 2. Akriti Bopanna - India 3. Question: Rafik as the initiator or notifier, does it automatically make him a volunteer in this draft? (okay with me, what is your say?) I will communicate with him to get other people interested in volunteering on this PTI and IANA draft comment. Thanks. Thato Mfikwe. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It will be nice for us to have comments, looking at the concerns here, which is the Financial imperative to both PTI and IANA fiscal year as anticipated by ICANN.org. This must be aligned with NCSG PC overall planned submission. As much as I appreciate the idea for FC input, it should be drived by PC so as to avoid any conflict. The draft link shared was not of Rafik but ICANN.org for comments, but as the chair of PC, he should lead the way and process while FC should look at the draft and make input to the PC which will be communicated or incorporated accordingly. In this spirit, can PC factor in till next week Wednesday for any input from FC in this regards, so as to carry it along to the community. Don't have issues with the volunteers as more of them will be required.
