I understand you will not be able to make this call, but we will not be making any decisions on this particular call, aside from possibly escalating documents to the Policy Committee or Executive Committee for their review. Unfortunately we have to move rather urgently as the Financial Assumptions comment will be closing soon. Best wishes, Ayden ??????? Original Message ???????

Don't put in any local times unless they have their time zones attached (e.g. 1100 EDT) Sam On 7/2/2019 5:58 AM, Maryam Bakoshi wrote: Maryam Bakoshi has invited you to NCSG Finance Committee Call on

None of my proposed revisions are intended to alter the main lines of Draft V1.0 There are so many suggested revisions that it has made more sense to submit a separate Version 1.1SL of the Draft Version 1.0 than to try marking up (mess up) the existing google docs draft. Internal comments and questions in my proposed revision are highlighted in RED. The simplest way to handle my suggested revisions is to first read Ayden's Draft Version 1.0 and then read my Revised Draft Version 1.1SL and note issues to be raised and discussed at the Thursday meeting.

I will be remaining an NCSG member (unaffiliated to any constituency) and while I will not officially be a member of the Finance Committee, I do intend to be informally observing the Finance Committee from the sidelines. I flag this because, as I was reviewing the draft operating procedures and reflecting on comments I made during today's call, I indicated that non-members of the Finance Committee should be able to comment and provide input to the Finance Committee. Given I may well be one of those individuals, this could be seen as a bias in the document. I want to make you aware of this. I do not think it is a major bias that materially impacts my ability to further contribute to the development of the operating procedures, but ultimately that is not and should not be my decision to make, so please do speak up if you disagree with my assessment. Thanks. Best wishes, Ayden -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

On our call today, we identified a need to better document all of the NCSG's ongoing operating expenses, and we are working to create a public ledger of our spending. We are in the process of reviewing mailing lists to understand what costs the NCSG has incurred in the past, and may incur in the future, and hope to be able to work with ICANN's finance department to possibly result in ICANN paying vendors directly. We would be grateful if you could share with us any information you may have on services you have paid for before on behalf of the NCSG, including the name of the provider, the amount paid, the frequency of this payment, and who (if anyone) reimbursed you for this service (i.e. ICANN org, NCUC bank account, etc). If you happen to have any invoices, please can you send those to me off-list so I can help re-build our records. And if you haven't been reimbursed, or lost money on the reimbursement (because of currency conversion rates, etc.) please can you advise of this also... Thank you for your assistance. Kind regards, Ayden F?rdeline on behalf of the NCSG Finance Committee P.S. I have sent this email to you because I think there is a chance you may know the answer to this question, but please feel free to forward along to any other contacts. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I have investigated this further and discovered that, unfortunately, Cloudflare Registrar does not currently support our ccTLD. It only supports gTLDs. So this is not something we can avail of.

Maybe the first question is why are we starting the FC OP from scratch as opposed to resolving or amending issues in the initial draft? Nonetheless, I think this document does not fully reflect section 2.6 of the NCSG charter in regard to the purpose of the FC. The FC should not be limited to leading and facilitating community comments on finacial but accounting, auditing, and financial management responsibilities need to be reflected, the *primary role of any finance committee is to provide financial oversight*, which includes budgeting, financial planning, financial reporting and putting in place internal controls above other responsibilities and fiduciary duties of finance committees. The FC should not be prohibited from attending ICANN meetings, whether supported by NCSG or ICANN resources. This draft keeps emphasising that the FC must not use the funds of NCSG by the FC outside transcription costs during online meeting, which is unfair IHMO, such statements make the document seem biased some how, opposing and limiting the scope, potential and effectiveness of the FC, which will in turn hamper accountability and transparency within NCSG.

The FC should not be limited to leading and facilitating community comments on finacial but accounting, auditing, and financial management responsibilities need to be reflected, the primary role of any finance committee is to provide financial oversight, which includes budgeting, financial planning, financial reporting and putting in place internal controls above other responsibilities and fiduciary duties of finance committees. > > The FC should not be prohibited from attending ICANN meetings, whether supported by NCSG or ICANN resources. This draft keeps emphasising that the FC must not use the funds of NCSG by the FC outside transcription costs during online meeting, which is unfair IHMO, such statements make the document seem biased some how, opposing and limiting the scope, potential and effectiveness of the FC, which will in turn hamper accountability and transparency within NCSG. > > It is rather unfortunate that I missed today's call. > > Thato Mfikwe. > > : > > On Thu, Jul 4, 2019 at 8:54 PM Ayden F?rdeline wrote: > >> Dear all, >> >> I have revised our draft Operating Procedures based upon the discussion on our call today.

If you will no longer be an NCUC member then according to the Charter you cannot represent any constituency within the FC, the NCSG EC, I think can appoint members into the FC. The normal process is that if you decide to proceed then NCUC must call for another representative, consult the Charter for guidance. Now, Referring to your email: "I indicated that non-members of the Finance Committee should be able to comment and provide input to the Finance Committee. Given I may well be one of those individuals, this could be seen as a bias in the document" Are you saying you rather comment and provide input to or in the FC than lead the committee? And if so, I understand you cannot continue commenting and providing input when you should be leading the process and resolving issues as they come and also in advance. Sometimes you need to be on the other side and work with members, who may not always agree with you in a collaborative way, in order to relieve strain of your work, since we are operating within a diverse organisation (ICANN) with a unique setup. Thato Mfikwe.

I also acknowledged this on today?s call, noting that my resignation is effective 30 July 2019 (so in three weeks time). So I will remain here as Chair until the NCUC appoints someone else. I did not want to spring this on the NCUC with no notice. However, the business of the Committee must go on, so I will continue to work over the coming weeks to develop our Operating Procedures to make life easier for our next Chair. As to your second question/comment, I think there is a misunderstanding. I said on today?s call that input should be received from both members of the FC and non-members. For example, Thato ? you are no longer a member of the FC. But I still listen to your inputs :) That?s what I?m fighting for: broader participation.

You already have full participation rights. I have not attempted to change that. All I have tried to do, in the operating procedures, is to formalise this so that it is clearer that the Finance Committee has a mechanism for receiving input from non-members and non-observers. But to keep things factual, the charter when quoted in full and not selectively does differentiate between Members and Observers. An observer is also defined as someone appointed an observer by a constituency, not just someone who wants to audit the Finance Committee's activities.

I just paid the last Wannapixel bill, and am now 4 months behind in getting paid. This could be a real disincentive for people to run for Chair of NCSG, as not everyone wants to give ICANN an interest free loan of 2308US$ for the duration of their chairing period.... So we need to specify a solution for this in the procedures somehow, as well as define our status for the purposes of the IRS and its W8Ben forms.... cheers SP On 2019-07-05 07:24, Ayden F?rdeline wrote: Dear all, I am going to share a link to the Google Doc where we are drafting our operating procedures on the NCSG-Discuss list.

So long as we remain transparent and consultative we will be judged by our actions. If we had an ethics policy we would still be judged by our actions, and could not hide behind a pro forma adherence to some ethics policy. This is not like being a lawyer, where things like confidentiality and handling in-trust funds are involved. It is more a matter of doing our assigned jobs well. For what it is worth....

However, *procedures for public comments and for submission of ABRs are still paramount* to guiding how the FC should engage stakeholders and the community. If there are perceived or real ethical issues within the FC then they need to be resolved, failing which will require remedial action, so far no ethical issues or complaints have been decided upon, if not brought forward to justify the development of such. The initial purpose for the development of the FC operational procedure, if not mistaken, was to develop a procedural document that will articulate and guide how the FC delivers its responsibilities as articulated in the charter, the new version seems to be missing that essence of being a reflection of section 2.6 in practice, which is also a basis upon which FC plans are developed and activites are properly mainstreamed within the community. Maybe more information on how the decision was reached to develop this new version would be insightful because it seems like we wasting time reinventing the wheel as opposed to reviewing, improving and amending the last FC OP draft that was developed in consultation with the community and FC members, before community comment and submission to the PC and EC for review and approval before year end if possible. Just a comment, thanks. Thato Mfikwe.

The objective for our procedures is to have ones which achieve specific results. We want to submit comments on the budget, so we've proposed a process for developing a comment on the budget. We want to submit ABRs, so we will have a process for doing that. So I don't agree that these procedures are "prohibitive"; what they are is prescriptive, so we have a clear process to follow so that the FC today and in the future is clear on what it should be doing. I hope this makes us more efficient, effective, and collaborative, because we are baking in the requirement to seek input and to work in the open. I hope this is helpful.

As superfluous as they might seem (referring here to Sam's doubts about the ethics policy) it's always useful to have as a reference and a foundation upon which to build. Assuming we can rely on everyone's good faith, we can still have good faith misunderstandings. An ethics policy would certainly not have the clearcut answer to a given concrete dilemma or fact pattern, but it would provide an agreed-upon guideline for those in authority to take the decision.

At the same time I remind us that the transcripts/audio of our FC meetings is public and that we should exercise caution and integrity our discussions there. I will always caution against intemperate or speculative inferences, and for the FC to remain evidence based in its communications to the Executive Committee.

Anyway, the FC should provide financial advice/recommendations and report to the community and the EC on NCSG spending, financial plans and budgets, furthermore, the EC makes the final decision. The FC should not impose itself but offer advice and report financial activities and monitor spending in a collaborative and transparent fashion with its stakeholders (PC, EC, C's and community) according to my understanding, this is one of the reasons why an FC Operational Procedure doc is important to clearly articulate this responsibilities in the most clinical/actionable way while respecting stipulations of the charter to avoid further confusion, reinventing the process will only frustrate and delay activities of the FC as mentioned. The FC cannot effectively contribute or move forward if it has no Operating Procedures that articulates its responsibilities, not just community engagement processes and codes of conducts, this will make it simple for the FC to execute its fiduciary duties as listed in the Charter.

This area is, of course, outside the remit of NCSG-FC so bear with my minor rant here. As I understood the mandate of the intersessional, it was to allow constituencies to work on areas of difference to expand the areas for consensus and compromise in the rest of our ICANN engagement. Some of that did, of course, take place but my sense (again a personal view) is that too much time was devoted to: (a) constituencies basically restating their positions from their engagement in the PDP's, and from the larger ICANN meetings, and (b) constituencies meeting on their own to deal with/conduct internal constituency business. It is my view that (b) conducting internal constituency business at ICANN meetings is also a bad use of time and resources, dealing with internal matters (e.g. Charter review) that should be handled between face-to-face meetings. Again, this is out of our FC mandate, others may disagree with me, and I will not belabor this any further. Sam L.

The role I saw for the Finance Committee was contained less to the substance of the Intersessional, and more to documenting the preparatory process and resulting outputs so that we have records - and results - to be able to include in our future Additional Budget Request(s) that we may/may not submit for a future Intersessional. This is a very important resource for the NCSG. And it's cost to ICANN is considerable. I personally consider it a high priority that we're harnessing it as best we can. We can debate what the role here may be of the Finance Committee, but what I will not relent on is NCSG members having some oversight and insights into how its preparations are going.

Meetings are what you make of them, and some, particularly those between groups who are not natural allies, require a lot of preparation to be successful. I see one primary purpose of the intercessionals as being to foster a greater understanding of common interests among those other constituencies which whom we are yoked in the NCPH. Particularly in the light of the focus on the GDPR and all things whois that has taken place over the past few years, I see a need to work harder on that relationship, given the accumulation of friction points in all this work. This is important, given that we will be experiencing another GNSO review in the near future, and current NCSG members may be blissfully unaware of the 100 years war that has gone on over our representation on Council. When that review comes around, most of our seasoned members will be out of office. Just my two cents. I see very little support for the Intersessional, but I suspect that this may be partly due to the fact that it will be held in Los Angeles, not some more attractive destination like Marrakech or Paris.

In advance of this call, please review the [draft Internal Operating Procedures](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NGJc-DjpC3o2AGHEaA6gF_c7t51_Me87-WJw1KXd6Eo/edit?usp=sharing) and suggest edits directly in the Google Doc. The hope is that we will be in a position to be able to share these procedures with the NCSG Executive Committee at the conclusion of tomorrow's call. Please also review our [proposed comment on the financial assumptions](https://docs.google.com/document/d/15MRe6L9AkkS1e0y5LBzcLRxMfQt5Shi0RH7jIBKq8To/edit). To date, no input has been received from NCSG members, but if that changes I'll let you know. After tomorrow's call, it is hoped we can leave this comment with the NCSG Policy Committee. In addition, please review our [proposed ethics policy.](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1C95bABHfIHzi1iO73c5rMH3qQTADM15OkX2OXZQyLew/edit?usp=sharing) I consider the adoption of this policy to be a high priority for the Finance Committee. It is my ambition to be able to share this document with the NCSG Executive Committee following tomorrow's call. Finally, please reflect on what role you would like to see the Finance Committee playing (if any) in NCPH Intersessional preparations. I will be proposing that we initiate a taskforce on this matter and I will share my thoughts on tomorrow's call.

As the NCUC position will be unfilled come 1 August, that only leaves Sam as a Finance Committee member who is not NCSG Chair and thus can serve as Finance Committee Chair. Accordingly, I have asked if he would be willing to serve as interim Chair. Once the NCUC appoints a new member, there can be a discussion of the fully-formed Finance Committee as to how it will be led moving forward. The alternative is for me to write to the NCSG Executive Committee and to ask that the Finance Committee be suspended and to assign its duties to the Policy Committee until such time as the NCSG Executive Committee is satisfied it has a fuller membership.

Also as the outgoing chair, you cannot suspend the FC just because you do not wish to continue serving as a Chair or representing NCUC, where do you get that? It seems like you are creating your own rules here because the only power for the Chair according to the charter is to fulfil the NCSG Treasury role. What actually guided your action, does the charter or any community or committee guidelines allow you to act in this fashion? You need to stop what you trying to do and wait for the NCUC chair to give direction or the FC committee to discuss the way forward in an open and inclusive manner as opposed to taking decisions by yourself. This could have been discussed in our meeting today before making taking such a decision. I also find this difficult to understand why other members do not see anything wrong with what is taking place right now or why they are keeping quiet when all these things are taking place, consistency is needed in the FC decision-making process to ensure fairness. I hope we will touch on this in our meeting later today. Thato Mfikwe.

For reasons that need not concern us Ayden Ferdeline is stepping down as Chair of the Finance Committee. Unless I am mistaken that basically leaves two possible interim Chairs for the FC, myself representing NPOC and Stephanie as Chair of NCSG. Stephanie, as Chair of NCSG cannot serve as Chair here. We are talking about an interim chair until NCSG appoints its member and (as you note) the FC chair is appointed by a 2/3rds vote of the FC. As soon as NCUC appoints its member, there can be a vote for the FC Chair and I can cease being interim Chair. /What is it that I do not understand about your position with regard to due process around the appointment of the next FC Chair?/ Sam L.

An interim chair can be appointed in circumstances such as this one, i.e. where the permanent chair has resigned. I have not sought to appoint a permanent chair. I have done my best to operate in an open and transparent manner. I?m sorry you feel otherwise. You are welcome to escalate your complaint if you wish.

NCUC already has a process going on for selecting a new appointee to the Finance Committee and, as we dont know the outcome of the call yet or the applications received, I would suggest for us to wait a bit. While we wait, it would be great for either Sam, Ayden, Thato and also Remmy to maybe share a little bit about their experiences at the FC. Maybe by sharing such impressions we can help any member who's in doubt about applying for the committee.

None of that has happened here. We are trying to clear up some misunderstanding of the current situation. In reponse to your request for "a little bit about experiences at the FC", my comments will be short since I am not a candidate. They are intended to give one a sense of what working with me is like. /I worked with Ed Morris (now left NCSG) in the resuscitation of the then moribund Financial Committee several years ago. It had done little/nothing for a long time. We looked at the 2011 Charter where its terms-of-reference are way out of date since they had assumed that NCSG would have income from dues and other sources. It does not. I had to pull back from ICANN involvement for the past couple of years while I dealt with personal issues (collapse of late-in-life mistaken second marriage. I am explicit on this since I want to rule out worries that it was work or health related) but I am back. With other hats I am also the treasurer of a modest organization that does have revenues and expenditures.? As a board member elsewheree, serving as Chairs and Presidents, I know both due process and the issues that can emerge. I am good at mediating disputes in the search for consensus. / /Sam L, NPOC/ On 7/23/2019 10:05 AM, Bruna Martins dos Santos wrote: > Dear all, > > Before we start engaging in such conversations, I ask you to wait for > the present call to be closed.??NCUC already has a process going on > for selecting a new appointee to the Finance Committee and, as we dont > know the outcome of the call yet or the applications received, I would > suggest for us to wait a bit. > > While we wait, it would be great for either?Sam, Ayden, Thato and also > Remmy to maybe share a little bit about their experiences at the FC. > Maybe by sharing such impressions we can help any member who's in > doubt about applying for the committee. > > Best Regards, > > Bruna Santos > NCUC Chair -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
