[PC-NCSG] In search of European & national data protection officials for ICANN Whois Expert Working Group

[Robin Gross]

Thanks, Rudi! If you could follow-up with Peter Hustinx that would be  
great.  < peter.hustinx at edps.europa.eu >

And we have been reaching out to national privacy commissioners  
outside of Europe as well, like New Zealand and Australia that I've  
reached out to.  There is already a good Canadian privacy authority  
on the EWG fortunately with Stephanie Perrin in the group.

It has been extremely difficult to get participation or interest from  
these national privacy commissioners.  (I've contacted nearly 20!).   
They usually say "Article 29 handles that so we don't."  BUT, Article  
29 is not participating in this group or following this debate, so we  
need for someone else to pick up the banner or to convince Article 29  
that it needs to engage.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide in recruiting some privacy  
officials for this group!

Best,
Robin
