Ayden already started a thread in NCSG list highlighting several items. Best, Rafik ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Rafik Dammak Date: mar. 18 d?c. 2018 ? 08:46 Subject: [Public Comments] Call for Volunteers for ICANN Draft FY20 Operating Plan and Budget and Five-Year Operating Plan Update To: NCSG Hi all, ICANN just published today the public consultation for the FY20 Operating Plan and Budget. With the IANA stewardship transition and ICANN accountability setup, it became critical for the different groups within ICANN including NCSG to follow the budgeting and planning process more closely and participate actively. As a group, we need to submit our comment on the ICANN budget in particular in relation to anything related to GNSO policy making processes and the support provided to community. The budget and operating plan set and outline the priorities for ICANN for coming fiscal year and so having impact on our policies and our activities. There is also an update of 5 years operating plan. For more background, you can find all the relevant material here: https://www.icann.org/public-comments/fy20-budget-2018-12-17-en I created this google doc to be used during the drafting and accessible to all: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OkFN5FKHPPGqT4hyJGjWRTE5IXJS8CbjusUMPo_5kng/edit Please let me offline if you want to volunteer to participate in drafting the NCSG comment. For this particular effort, the NCSG Financial Committee is expected to work with other interested volunteers from NCSG membership. It also should coordinate with the NCSG members of the GNSO Standing Committee on ICANN's Budget and Operations, led by Ayden. I expect NCSG Policy Committee members to participate actively too. As there are several things to cover in the public comment material, having many volunteers would be helpful. It is also an important group effort for NCSG. The final draft comment will go then through the usual process of review and approval for the NCSG Policy Committee. You can find previous public comment submitted by NCSG here https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Public+Comments+-+2018 and listing those who drafted them. thanks again for those who participating in drafting of the previous comments : Austin, Ioana, Farzaneh, Tomslin, Farell, Juan.

The same goes for the NCUC's current account. Now, I think we (me and Tapani) have found a solution to our problems and it is such that I will get a e-citizenship in Estonia, register the C's and the SG in Estonia and then open the bank account to each of them separately in person. We'll probably need another few people to take e-residencies as well, to share the responsibility and accountability of said accounts and the e-residency costs 100? per person. https://apply.gov.ee/ None of our SG's organisational structure is officially recognised anywhere but inside ICANN - I think we should change that and register in a country that is actually a lot more lenient than Finland or USA, for example. https://www.estoniancompanyregistration.com/nonprofit-organisation-registration-in-estonia The most essential difference to most countries is that Estonia allows change of authorised users on bank accounts to people with e-residency ID, and this change can be done in any consulate of Estonia in the world. All I would need, is the boat trip to Tallinn and back and one night in a local hotel. This would be less than 200? in total. 200? for e-residency for two people, per account, so 600?. We'd also need to cover the costs of registering our organisations in Estonia, which will probably make things easier, and I think all three can be registered for less that 200? in total. So... We'd need about a thousand euros + 5 people wanting to put their names as the account holders. What do you guys think? If we discuss this further, I might actually get all the details together by Kobe. I think it would be crucial to finally get our organisational infrastructure together and be able to change people as the account holders. Now the situation is really inflexible and reliant on a very few people with access to the accounts. Once we register the organisations as not-for-profits, we could also finally get an government ID to start using Google's nonprofit benefits which are really quite numerous. Same goes for Dropbox for example, they give 30% discount. -Raoul P.S. While I was searching, I found this a record of the CSG having a nonprofit register in the USA. I found that somewhat surprising. [image: image.png] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Lets just discuss at the next FC meeting. Peraonlly, as I have said before, I want members to focus on the Legal implications of creating these entities. Folks who are busy fighting in the trenches on the policy side (and I count myself one of them) encounter a lot of pushback and animosity at ICANN. Creating an entity exposes us, however theoretically, to litigation. Think this through thoroughly before creating a target please. We have so little money, and so few prospects of getting more, that I really don't see the point to incorporating/forming a legal entity at the moment. And as I tried to point out on the list....at the moment I have the most money invested in our processes (2430 US to be precise, which I am sure will be repaid eventually, even if I have to eat the currency exchange and transfer fees). More to the point would be to focus on the ABRs, in my opinion. Stephanie On 2019-01-07 06:34, thatomfikwe wrote: Hi Remmy and all, I saw the email discussion around bank accounts.

I take cognisance of the problems that come with opening and account but what does this mean interms of the NCSG charter that clearly states that NCSG must have its accout? Not against any suggestion just need to understand implications of alternative decisions. Regarding small amounts of money in NCSG name, does it mean we wait for finances to reach a certain level before we consider an account, if so what is that level? NCSG cannot continue to dig into members pockets to manage expenses so findrasing plan is vital and ABR, PIR and annual budgets are one way, there are other ways like external sponsors and funders. I some how feel that there might be interelation between ability to fundraise and existence of an account. Funders, atleast external and potentials might not be ?comfortable with funding a structure that doesnt have its own accounts in my view. Still bearing in mind that fundraising is underpinned by priorities, activities and plans. Thato Mfikwe.

Lets just discuss at the next FC meeting.?? Peraonlly, as I have said before, I want members to focus on the Legal implications of creating these entities.? Folks who are busy fighting in the trenches on the policy side (and I count myself one of them) encounter a lot of pushback and animosity at ICANN.? Creating an entity exposes us, however theoretically, to litigation.? Think this through thoroughly before creating a target please.? We have so little money, and so few prospects of getting more, that I really don't see the point to incorporating/forming a legal entity at the moment.? And as I tried to point out on the list....at the moment I have the most money invested in our processes (2430 US to be precise, which I am sure will be repaid eventually, even if I have to eat the currency exchange and transfer fees). More to the point would be to focus on the ABRs, in my opinion. Stephanie On 2019-01-07 06:34, thatomfikwe wrote: Hi Remmy and all, I saw the email discussion around bank accounts. I do not have a problem with the suggestions because opening of an account will make the FC activities simple to coordinate and enhance transperency on financial activities IMO. Do you think we need to hold a meeting around this? I think we just need to reach consensus and maybe the proposed meeting will be around how we move forward with this idea of opening an account. Bare in mind that this suggestion also has financial implications so we need to also see how we can do this without exerting financial pressure on members. I have never heard of e-citizenship before so this is still foreign to me but am willing to support this direction, thanks. Thato Mfikwe.

The same goes for the NCUC's current account. Now, I think we (me and Tapani) have found a solution to our problems and it is such that I will get a e-citizenship in Estonia, register the C's and the SG in Estonia and then open the bank account to each of them separately in person. We'll probably need another few people to take e-residencies as well, to share the responsibility and accountability of said accounts and the e-residency costs 100? per person.?https://apply.gov.ee/ None of our SG's organisational structure is officially recognised anywhere but inside ICANN - I think we should change that and register in a country that is actually a lot more lenient than Finland or USA, for example. https://www.estoniancompanyregistration.com/nonprofit-organisation-registration-in-estonia The most essential difference to most countries is that Estonia allows change of authorised users on bank accounts to people with e-residency ID, and this change can be done in any consulate of Estonia in the world. All I would need, is the boat trip to Tallinn and back and one night in a local hotel. This would be less than 200? in total. 200? for e-residency for two people, per account, so 600?. We'd also need to cover the costs of registering our organisations in Estonia, which will probably make things easier, and I think all three can be registered for less that 200? in total. So... We'd need about a thousand euros?+ 5 people wanting to put their names as the account holders. What do you guys think? If we discuss this further, I might actually get all the details together by Kobe. I think it would be crucial to finally get our organisational infrastructure together and be able to change people as the account holders.

For instance, there is no clear reason for the non adoption or comment to improve it which was initiated due to the call by NCSG chair, and to help in collation of ABR afterwards, thus the NCUC decline is already counter productive to transparency and accountability effort by FC. But take it that FC reps are part of Excom it will afford FC to have sufficient background to the decline and come up with more acceptable concept. In fact it seems we have three C's - NPOC, NCUC and FC under NCSG. Until we revisit this honestly not much progress will be made as we continue to fall short of ICANN processes of genuine transparency and accountability in our folds.

But just so we can work together, I believe that communication is key - that meaning we could have a closer conversation between the FC, the NCUC EC and the constituency. At the same time, Remmy, I hope I am misinterpretating your email as I did not appreciate the tone of it, as well as your attempt to challenge a decision taken by the NCUC Executive Committee. As explained, we very much appreciate the FC work and do want to work together to the committee, but we did not find it feasible to adopt the proposed form given that the ABRs deadline is coming in less than 3 days. By adopting the proposed form now we would have to have an extra amount of work in reading through the suggestions, selecting which ones we are submitting and then starting to draft the actual ABR form. Today is the 12th of January and the deadline for ABRs submission, as you may know, is the 15th - therefore the FC suggestion was not adopted this year in order to avoid adding another layer of work in the ABRs submission when we really dont have time for that. With regards to your comment on transparency, you might have seen my email to the NCUC list asking for ABRs suggestions and volunteers to draft it. While I think this is something that the FC could be onboard I am not going to take the time to ask why neither of you volunteered to draft anything or sent us any suggestion yet, because I do think we have to work together and I dont believe that picking fights with each other will help us achieving anything here. But, Remmy, as soon as NCUC submits its ABRs, they will be shared on the list - I might even be able to do it before the deadline just so we have time for corrections and community comments. I do believe that the deadline is not ideal, but we are all volunteers here and I am working with and how I can, and I do believe that the FC is doing the same. Having said that, can we count with any of the FC members help in drafting ABRs ?

Today is the 12th of January and the deadline for ABRs submission, as you may know, is the 15th - therefore the FC suggestion was not adopted this year in order to avoid adding another layer of work in the ABRs submission when we really dont have time for that. With regards to your comment on transparency, you might have seen my email to the NCUC list asking for ABRs suggestions and volunteers to draft it. While I think this is something that the FC could be onboard I am not going to take the time to ask why neither of you volunteered to draft anything or sent us any suggestion yet, because I do think we have to work together and I dont believe that picking fights with each other will help us achieving anything here. But, Remmy, as soon as NCUC submits its ABRs, they will be shared on the list - I might even be able to do it before the deadline just so we have time for corrections and community comments. I do believe that the deadline is not ideal, but we are all volunteers here and I am working with and how I can, and I do believe that the FC is doing the same. Having said that, can we count with any of the FC members help in drafting ABRs ?

For instance, there is no clear reason for the non adoption or comment to improve it which was initiated due to the call by NCSG chair, and to help in collation of ABR afterwards, thus the NCUC decline is already counter productive to transparency and accountability effort by FC. But take it that FC reps are part of Excom it will afford FC to have sufficient background to the decline and come up with more acceptable concept. In fact it seems we have three C's - NPOC, NCUC and FC under NCSG. Until we revisit this honestly not much progress will be made as we continue to fall short of ICANN processes of genuine transparency and accountability in our folds. Happy weekend everyone as we ponder.

However, for me asking FC to take over drafting of ABR in your email is a throwback, which is not necessary instead of addressing the issues raised including the imperative of FC Reps being included even in an extended excom to enable the Reps understand where the Cs are headed to thereby proactive. I will not subscribe to your request also because it portends to say that FC reps are less busy, even though it will amount to micromanaging the ABR which we are supposed to oversee its implementation, thereby overreaching itself. Its like saying that your external auditor should prepare your accounts. This is aside that all of us have various degree of volunteerism here and there. I think the best the FC Reps can do is to ensure that transparency and accountability prevails, hence the template concept was initiated to actually fasttrack the submission and ease for every party against your reasons for the decline which for me remain latent in practice and offered an opposition to a platform for improved ABR submission from the NCSG.

While we are in need of volunteers to help draft the ABRs and even get some ideas around (if you had any you could help us by sharing them on the list), the Finance Committee is basically saying this is not their job to do - while writing ABRs is something we are trying to do on behalf of and for the stakeholder group and its constituencies. I believe that in order to fully oversee the implementation of our requests - if we manage to get any of them out - the FC would need to actually know them, as well as the submission process. By that we could do a proper follow up of what worked and what didnt. And imho, helping us draft them would be a way of getting the FC actually involved in the process. Last but not least, I dont agre that anyone here is trying to micromanage anyone. We are trying to actually put an ABR proposal forward and continue to work for the constituencies. Such accusations do nothing but expose our work. If after reading this email you continue to think asking the FC to help us draft ABRs is an attempt of micromanaging, consider helping us without your FC Hat and simply as constituency member - and if your other volunteering work keeps you from doing so it is also fine. (I myself have taken a few break from reading the Geonames public comment due to the ABRs) Em s?b, 12 de jan de 2019 ?s 16:29, Stephanie Perrin < stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca> escreveu: > Thanks Farzi.

URL: From thatomfikwe at gmail.com Sun Jan 13 14:22:48 2019 From: thatomfikwe at gmail.com (thatomfikwe) Date: Sun, 13 Jan 2019 14:22:48 +0200 Subject: [NCSG-FC] NCSG Additional Budget Request (ABR) Form - Invitation to edit Message-ID: Dear members, It has come to my attention that the FC and ECs of contituencies and NCSG (not sure about NPOC yet, not sure also if NCSG EC deliberated on this), but seems like we all cannot reach consensus on how the ABR process should work. Although some did not provide comment but just mentioned and saw the initiative as not appropriate.FOR purposes of submitting on time I would recommend that the leaders proceed according to their suggestions but be aware that the lack coordination make this tough for the FC. Bear in mind that the NCSG chair was calling for the FC to help coordinate the submissions before the deadline. My confusion comes when FC responds to the NCSG chair call by developing a google form which is eventually not used, but later a different form is used for the same purpose. The FC consults with members and leaders or was is supposed to circulate the google form? If members do not respond to ABR calls then we have a problem, meaning few members are either happy with the current status quo or understand how to participate, this is one of the reason why the FC needs to be more active with support within outside the SG. As mentioned in another response the FC was not active but it now is and could use all the support. The issue of the charter needs to be revisited, seems like we tend to forget what the charter directions and stipulations state as we need to abide by respective precepts. We need to avoid the use of strong language because nobody is fighting or under threat here. Disagreement and challenging are two different things, the FC cannot always agree with leaders and still have no intention to impose itself. In attempt to ease the process of submission, the FC created this form to consult with leaders and their EC before final decisions are taken by appropriate committees. This was going to help with the drafting because the community would have made input. The FC has never imposed itself on constituencies and this has been communicated and clarified in several emails. Based on how the conversations on this thread are moving, it seems like there wont be collaborations amongst constitiencies and the SG meaning that everyone or committees will push their own idea or agenda. Note: the FC is willing to help but clear instructions need to be given to void these types of disagreements. The FC cannot guess or draft ABRs without community input unless leaders and ECs will play that role. The FC is here to also help new leaders intergrate not challenge them. We need to work together irrespective of how we may feel about it because the FC itself need the support of leaders to ensure NCSG has a firm financial footing. What I am starting to take note of is that these power struggles taking place amongst committees and ECs are deeply rooted and not easy to uproot. We need to respect each others role and exercise fairness as leaders and representatives of our constituency, thanks. @Stephanie, please indicate a clear way forward so that we can move. Thato Mfikwe.

I will send the form to both lists now in order to ease the process.? Remmy, re. what you said I think we have a problem. While we are in need of volunteers to help draft the ABRs and even get some ideas around (if you had any you could help us by sharing them on the list), the Finance Committee is basically saying this is not their job to do - while writing ABRs is something we are trying to do on behalf of and for the stakeholder group and its constituencies.? I believe that in order to fully oversee the implementation of our requests - if we manage to get any of them out - the FC would need to actually know them, as well as the submission process. By that we could do a proper follow up of what worked and what didnt. And imho, helping us draft them would be a way of getting the FC actually involved in the process.? Last but not least, I dont agre that anyone here is trying to micromanage anyone. We are trying to actually put an ABR proposal forward and continue to work for the constituencies. Such accusations do nothing but expose our work. If after reading this email you continue to think asking the FC to help us draft ABRs is an attempt of micromanaging, consider helping us without your FC Hat and simply as constituency member - and if your other volunteering work keeps you from doing so it is also fine.

I consulted with ICANN staff as well as NCSG? members and NCUC members? for ABRs, looked over what was accepted in other stakeholder groups and constituencies (that makes it hard to say no to us) consider priorities of NCSG and Cs and members comments. FC was not active at the time so I sent it to NCSG EC. NCSG EC does not check NCSG mailing list regularly so it's better to share with them whatever you share with the mailing list in advance so that they don't consider it as a late submission. Here is the Google doc of ABRs last year:?https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PpgItPf9siL-HnkuyDICL73y1NTg7B2UpmlKhk67CZU/edit But since we don't really have time I guess you can just wing it by using the Google Doc form and sending it to the mailing list. I personally think FC should have nothing to do with how Cs submit their ABRs. They can suggest something but not impose.?

I do agree that the FC has to work together with the Leadership teams in both constituencies and I mentioned to Thato in a call we had this week that NCUC EC is here to support him in all possible ways. But just so we can work together, I believe that communication is key - that meaning we could have a closer conversation between the FC, the NCUC EC and the constituency. At the same time, Remmy, I hope I am?misinterpretating?your email as I did not appreciate the tone of it, as well as your attempt to challenge a decision taken by the NCUC Executive Committee.? As explained, we very much appreciate the FC work and do want to work together to the committee, but we did not find it feasible to adopt the proposed form given that the ABRs deadline is coming in less than 3 days. By adopting the proposed form now we would have to have an extra amount of work in reading through the suggestions, selecting which ones we are submitting and then starting to draft the actual ABR form. Today is the 12th of January and the deadline for ABRs submission, as you may know, is the 15th - therefore the FC suggestion was not adopted this year in order to avoid adding another layer of work in the ABRs submission when we really dont have time for that.? With regards to your comment on transparency, you might have seen my email to the NCUC list asking for ABRs suggestions and volunteers to draft it. While I think this is something that the FC could be onboard I am not going to take the time to ask why neither of you volunteered to draft anything or sent us any suggestion yet, because I do think we have to work together and I dont believe that picking fights with each other will help us achieving anything here. But, Remmy, as soon as NCUC submits its ABRs, they will be shared on the list - I might even be able to do it before the deadline just so we have time for corrections and community comments. I do believe that the deadline is not ideal, but we are all volunteers here and I am working with and how I can, and I do believe that the FC is doing the same.? Having said that, can we count with any of the FC members help in drafting ABRs ?? Best,? bruna?? Em s?b, 12 de jan de 2019 ?s 07:40, Remmy Nweke escreveu: Thanks Bruna Giving the foregoing and latent position of NCUC to an attempt to enhance process, I think it's important for FC representatives to be included in their constituency Excom to enable them work in line and in alignment with the C's rather than across purposes. For instance, there is no clear reason for the non adoption or comment to improve it which was initiated due to the call by NCSG chair, and to help in collation of ABR afterwards, thus the NCUC decline is already counter productive to transparency and accountability effort by FC. But take it that FC reps are part of Excom it will afford FC to have sufficient background to the decline and come up with more acceptable concept. In fact it seems we have three C's - NPOC, NCUC and FC under NCSG. Until we revisit this honestly not much progress will be made as we continue to fall short of ICANN processes of genuine transparency and accountability in our folds.

It was a last resort action, but it's needed because Stephanie's personal money is at stake. The finance committee since at least June 2018 has been stuck in drafting the operating procedures, it did not come to consensus over its terms and delayed resolving the issues until now. Meanwhile, I had to pay out of pocket to keep the NCSG services going and now Stephanie has to It's totally unfair. The chair cannot just continuously pay out of pocket and wait for being reimbursed because the Finance Committee cannot come up with a solution. I 100% trust Stephanie in being the account holder and I am sure she will come up with a consultative solution later on. The current NCUC funder also knows Stephanie very well and it won't cause a problem with that regard should they decide to send the money to NCSG. Also note that she won't be the treasurer, so she doesn't unilaterally decide on the approval of funds. I encourage the Finance Committee to resolve issues of the operating procedures and have a lightweight process in place for disbursement of the fund which should be approved by EC. I thank Stephanie for accepting this responsibility for now.

Indeed, we do seem to be talking past each other. Who do you see as responsible for developing the proposals for ABRs? I am going to actually start tracking how much time the NCSG Chair spends replying to emails, taking required administrative actions, writing letters, comments, and in this case ABRs, paying bills and seeking reimbursements, etc. I think this would be be useful next year at election time, so that individuals running for office would have a realistic impression of the actual workload; I don't think it has been accurately logged before on a spreadsheet so I will try to set that up over the next little while and check it. I am accustomed to workload management spreadsheets, as I am sure all of us are, and I do think that a little scrutiny of actual workload would help us in developing procedures and workload delegation. cheers Stephanie On 2019-01-12 13:14, Remmy Nweke wrote: Thanks for the response, I must say you misinterpreted my email as I did not tend to challenge a decision taken by the NCUC for whatever its worth as I thought I was explicit enough. However, for me asking FC to take over drafting of ABR in your email is a throwback, which is not necessary instead of addressing the issues raised including the imperative of FC Reps being included even in an extended excom to enable the Reps understand where the Cs are headed to thereby proactive. I will not subscribe to your request also because it portends to say that FC reps are less busy, even though it will amount to micromanaging the ABR which we are supposed to oversee its implementation, thereby overreaching itself. Its like saying that your external auditor should prepare your accounts. This is aside that all of us have various degree of volunteerism here and there. I think the best the FC Reps can do is to ensure that transparency and accountability prevails, hence the template concept was initiated to actually fasttrack the submission and ease for every party against your reasons for the decline which for me remain latent in practice and offered an opposition to a platform for improved ABR submission from the NCSG.

But just so we can work together, I believe that communication is key - that meaning we could have a closer conversation between the FC, the NCUC EC and the constituency. At the same time, Remmy, I hope I am misinterpretating your email as I did not appreciate the tone of it, as well as your attempt to challenge a decision taken by the NCUC Executive Committee. As explained, we very much appreciate the FC work and do want to work together to the committee, but we did not find it feasible to adopt the proposed form given that the ABRs deadline is coming in less than 3 days. By adopting the proposed form now we would have to have an extra amount of work in reading through the suggestions, selecting which ones we are submitting and then starting to draft the actual ABR form. Today is the 12th of January and the deadline for ABRs submission, as you may know, is the 15th - therefore the FC suggestion was not adopted this year in order to avoid adding another layer of work in the ABRs submission when we really dont have time for that. With regards to your comment on transparency, you might have seen my email to the NCUC list asking for ABRs suggestions and volunteers to draft it. While I think this is something that the FC could be onboard I am not going to take the time to ask why neither of you volunteered to draft anything or sent us any suggestion yet, because I do think we have to work together and I dont believe that picking fights with each other will help us achieving anything here. But, Remmy, as soon as NCUC submits its ABRs, they will be shared on the list - I might even be able to do it before the deadline just so we have time for corrections and community comments. I do believe that the deadline is not ideal, but we are all volunteers here and I am working with and how I can, and I do believe that the FC is doing the same. Having said that, can we count with any of the FC members help in drafting ABRs ? Best, bruna Em s?b, 12 de jan de 2019 ?s 07:40, Remmy Nweke > escreveu: Thanks Bruna Giving the foregoing and latent position of NCUC to an attempt to enhance process, I think it's important for FC representatives to be included in their constituency Excom to enable them work in line and in alignment with the C's rather than across purposes. For instance, there is no clear reason for the non adoption or comment to improve it which was initiated due to the call by NCSG chair, and to help in collation of ABR afterwards, thus the NCUC decline is already counter productive to transparency and accountability effort by FC. But take it that FC reps are part of Excom it will afford FC to have sufficient background to the decline and come up with more acceptable concept. In fact it seems we have three C's - NPOC, NCUC and FC under NCSG. Until we revisit this honestly not much progress will be made as we continue to fall short of ICANN processes of genuine transparency and accountability in our folds. Happy weekend everyone as we ponder.

Although we very much appreciate the FC work and the idea of coming up with a mechanism to make our lives easier, in light of the short timeframe NCUC might not be able to adopt it now. Hopefully we will have the chance to enhance the proposed form for next year's ABRs process, and with the appropriate timeframe.

The finance committee since at least June 2018 has been stuck in drafting the operating procedures, it did not come to consensus over its terms and delayed resolving the issues until now. Meanwhile, I had to pay out of pocket to keep the NCSG services going and now Stephanie has to It's totally unfair. The chair cannot just continuously pay out of pocket and wait for being reimbursed because the Finance Committee cannot come up with a solution. I 100% trust Stephanie in being the account holder and I am sure she will come up with a consultative solution later on. The current NCUC funder also knows Stephanie very well and it won't cause a problem with that regard should they decide to send the money to NCSG. Also note that she won't be the treasurer, so she doesn't unilaterally decide on the approval of funds. I encourage the Finance Committee to resolve issues of the operating procedures and have a lightweight process in place for disbursement of the fund which should be approved by EC. I thank Stephanie for accepting this responsibility for now. Best Farzaneh On Mon, Jan 14, 2019 at 5:29 PM Stephanie Perrin > wrote: What procedures have we been following in the past Thato? I am happy to follow them, but to the best of my knowledge they do not exist. Separation of duties is normal in financial accountability procedures. EC is responsible for delegation of authority to spend (they make the decision about who gets funded with the PIR money), FC is accountable for oversight. RIght now, nobody is taking responsibility for paying the bills, except me. Farzi did it before me. Now I have spent days on this, answering emails and trying to respond to everybody. If we don't open a bank account, we won't get any money. I am getting a bit grouchy, I will respond once I get to Toronto where we have a major battle looming on the EPDP. If people did not trust me, they should not have elected me Chair, and I will cheerfully step down if that is the case. Oh and apparently, according to Milton, who has been accepting the PIR money for many years, we will need a business number that they recognize. That will be my next job, registering a non-entity for a business number, and ensuring that it has non-tax status.

If my memory serves me well, the last time NCSG FC discussed the bank account there was no way forward, not sure how this decision was reached because the FC was yet to investigate and discuss the matter before any action taken according to your comments during an online meeting and on the mailing list, correct me if I am mistaken, maybe I am losing something here. 2. What provoked this action from your side? 3. Please kindly clarify what you mean by oversight not approval? Are you referring to the FC and/or the PC of NCSG? If any, please also carefully review section 2.6 of NCSG charter because the charter is the guiding document of NCSG activities and committees, thanks. Thato Mfikwe.

I have named Tamir Israel of CIPPIC as an "or" cosigner, which means either one can sign a cheque. This will of course only be used if I get hit by a bus, which is a really bad joke in Ottawa these days because we just had a dreadful bus crash which killed three people. (proving that even old expressions like that one have meaning.) The account is free, because I am a senior, and I can write cheques or do e-transfers with it. I think it is all we need for now, but if someone like PIR wants to write us a cheque, they have to write it to me on behalf of NCSG so that I can deposit it. I think we are stuck with that reality until we create an entity. Even a non-incorporated ngo would have to have a business number, which has tax implications, so this is our best solution. I will forward the bank details, transit numbers etc. as soon as these numbers are available online.

I understand the time constraints that led this to be done in hurry, we would have done better. I have a comment on the second one about the training on security issues. This comment was also made by Farell on the Google doc but wanted to bring it here and weigh in for archiving purposes. Given that we are asking for funding to bring in some participants and have the workshop be held a day prior or after an ICANN meeting, I think to make our submission stronger, we might need to to be clear and focus such as by requesting for specific trainers who will help design a specific curriculum on a specific subjet. Rather than relying on groups such as the SSAC not mentionning a specific name or so. I too think we are too vague and this may affect our submission. Just wanted to throw this here.
