Detailed Information

Section I: Description, Explanation, and Purpose:

The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) unanimously approved at
its meeting on 20 November 2013 the consensus recommendations of the
IGO-INGO PDP Working Group, which are now pending Board action. The
detailed recommendations can be found in the Final
Report<http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/igo-ingo-final-10nov13-en.pdf>[PDF,
644 KB], with a summary provided within the GNSO
Council motion <http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20131120-2>.
One of the recommendations adopted was for the GNSO Council to request an
Issue Report, preceding a possible Policy Development Process (PDP), to
examine International Governmental Organization (IGO) and International
Non-Governmental Organization (INGO) access to curative rights protection
mechanisms such as the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) and Uniform
Rapid Suspension procedure (URS).

Section II: Background:

For a detailed background and history of the issue on whether to protect
certain IGO and INGO identifiers prior to the initiation of the IGO-INGO
PDP, please see the Final GNSO Issue
Report<http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/protection-igo-names-final-issue-report-01oct12-en.pdf>[PDF,
675 KB] on the Protection of International Organization Names in New
gTLDs. The IGO-INGO PDP Working Group (WG) was formed on 31 October 2012
and the WG Charter approved by the GNSO Council on 15 November 2012.  On 10
November 2013 the WG published its Final
Report<http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/igo-ingo-final-10nov13-en.pdf>[PDF,
644 KB] and sent it to the GNSO Council, incorporating feedback
received in response to its draft Final Report.  The WG's Final Report
includes supplemental documentation in the form of Minority Statements from
various WG members and their respective constituencies, including IGOs and
INGOs who may be affected by the recommendations under consideration.

The WG's consensus recommendations were unanimously
approved<http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20131120-2>by
the GNSO Council on 20 November 2013 and sent to the ICANN Board for
its
consideration. One of the recommendations adopted was for the GNSO Council
to request an Issue Report, preceding a possible PDP, to examine possible
amendments to the UDRP and URS to enable access by protected IGOs and INGOs
to these curative rights protection mechanisms. ICANN staff has prepared
the requested Preliminary Issue
Report<http://gnso.icann.org/en/issues/igo-ingo-crp-prelim-10mar14-en.pdf>[PDF,
288 KB] and is posting it for public comment prior to preparing the
Final Issue Report for the GNSO Council's consideration and vote.
