Dear Councilors,

We trust that you enjoyed a merry and festive holiday break, and extend
a warm welcome back to you for the Council activities for 2014!

As you will recall, the Council approved all the consensus
recommendations made by the IGO-INGO PDP Working Group at the Council
meeting in Buenos Aires on 20 November 2013. One of these
recommendations was for an Issue Report relating to possible
modifications to the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) and the
Uniform Rapid Suspension (URS) process in order to enable protected IGOs
and INGOs to access and utilize these curative rights protection mechanisms.

Staff has been engaged in preparing the Preliminary Issue Report, as
requested; however, due to the holiday break and the need for internal
coordination of several questions posed by the issue under
consideration, we find that we cannot complete the full report within
the 45 calendar day requirement specified in the GNSO PDP Manual. As a
result, I hereby write to request an extension of the time period. My
expectation is that staff will be able to complete and publish the full
Preliminary Issue Report before the end of January 2014 for public
comment, following which a Final Issue Report will be prepared and
submitted to the GNSO Council for your review and action.

Please let me know if there are any objections to the requested
extension. Thank you.

Cheers
Mary
