>> Dear Councillors,

>> Ahead of the official Council minutes, the following resolution was
>> passed at the GNSO Council meeting on 13 November 2014.
>>
>> Adoption of a Charter for a Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing
>> ICANN Accountability
>>
>> Whereas,
>>
>> 1. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA)
>> has requested that ICANN "convene a multistakeholder process to develop
>> a plan to transition
>> the U.S. government stewardship role" with regard to the IANA Functions
>> and related root zone management.
>>
>> 2. During discussions around the transition process, the community
>> raised the broader topic of the impact of the change on ICANN's
>> accountability given its historical
>> contractual relationship with the United States and NTIA. Accountability
>> in this context is defined, according to the Netmundial multistakeholder
>> statement[1], as the
>> existence of mechanisms for independent checks and balances as well as
>> for review and redress.
>>
>> 3. The concerns raised during these discussions around the transition
>> process indicate that the level of trust into the existing ICANN
>> accountability mechanisms does
>> not yet meet some stakeholder's expectations. Considering that the NTIA
>> has stressed that it was expecting community consensus regarding the
>> transition, this gap
>> between the current situation and stakeholder expectations may prevent
>> the transition to proceed.
>>
>> 4. A DT was formed with participants, amongst others, from the ccNSO,
>> GNSO, ASO and ALAC to develop a charter for a Cross Community Working
>> Group on
>> Enhancing ICANN Accountability.
>>
>> 5. The DT delivered the proposed charter for consideration to all the
>> ICANN Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees for consideration
>> (see:http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/enhancing-accountability-charter-03nov14-en.pdf)
>>
>> Resolved,
>>
>> 1. The GNSO Council approves the Charter
>> (http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/enhancing-accountability-charter-03nov14-en.pdf)
>> and appoints Thomas Rickert as the GNSO Council liaison and GNSO
>> co-chair to the CWG.
>>
>> 2. Each GNSO Stakeholder Group will identify one member for the CWG by
>> 20 November taking into account the charter requirement that best
>> efforts should be
>> made to ensure that members:
>>
>> ? Have sufficient expertise to participate in the applicable
>> subject matter
>> (see for examplehttps://www.icann.org/resources/pages/enhancing-accountability-faqs-2014-08-22-en#12
>> for areas identified for expertise);
>>
>> ? Commit to actively participate in the activities of the CWG on
>> an ongoing and long-term basis; and
>>
>> ? Where appropriate, solicit and communicate the views and
>> concerns of individuals in the organization that appoints them.
>>
>> 3. The GNSO will collaborate with the other SOs and ACs to issue a call
>> for participants to join the CWG, each in accordance with its own rules.
