Dear GNSO Councilors,

Please see the attached Discussion Paper for your consideration and 
discussion during the GNSO Council meeting on 30 June at ICANN 56 in 
Helsinki.

As you may recall, In September 2015, the Independent Examiner that had 
been appointed to conduct the GNSO organizational review published its 
Final Report. At its meeting in April 2016, the GNSO Council adopted, 
with one modification, the proposed Feasibility and Prioritization 
Analysis of the Independent Examiner?s recommendations that was prepared 
by the GNSO Working Party (see 
http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#201604). The Working Party 
had been formed to liaise between the GNSO, the Board?s Organizational 
Effectiveness Committee (OEC) and the Independent Examiner. The OEC 
considered the Final Report and the GNSO?s modified Feasibility and 
Prioritization Analysis at its meeting in May 2016, and is expected to 
recommend action by the Board on the GNSO organizational review in Helsinki.

To prepare for implementation of the recommendations that are expected 
to be adopted by the ICANN Board, ICANN staff was requested to prepare a 
Discussion Paper for the GNSO. The discussion paper is intended to 
facilitate the Council?s discussion and subsequent agreement on a 
possible mechanism to develop and execute the implementation plan.

The Discussion Paper is expected to be on the Council?s meeting agenda 
in Helsinki on Thursday, 30 June.  The primary recommendation in this 
Discussion Paper is for this mechanism to be in the form of a Working 
Group and that following further Council discussion (including in 
Helsinki) the Council may be in a position to vote and adopt the charter 
for this Working Group (or other mechanism the Council may decide on) at 
its July meeting (assuming the Board adopts the OEC recommendations in 
Helsinki).

Kind regards,

Julie

Julie Hedlund, Policy Director
