Hi all,

I have done some final polishing to the letter, and have attached a proposed final draft. I hope we may be able to reach agreement soon on sending this letter. Also - I was wondering, should it carry a name, perhaps of the Chair, or is it okay to be signed 'NCSG'?

Many thanks, Ayden

As we saw in Hong Kong this month, our public silence is being manipulated and used to make the false claim that we are being consulted with and are an integral part of ICANN's efforts to comply with the GDPR, when we are not. Thanks for these edits Stephanie. We need to reshape the narrative and get it all documented.

In terms of informing the DPAs....Swineheart is trying to get people to the IWGDPT meeting in Paris, I think everyone has been briefed at the data commissioners meeting in Hong kong (remember a whole crew from ICANN went) that there is a draft statement coming. So they know we have been briefing them for two years, we need to sharpen that a bit.

That way we can document for the data protection authorities that we have been informing ICANN in excess of six months of their need to comply with this regulation.

How would we go about this, however? Do we write to the GAC? Do we express this desire to them in Abu Dhabi during our face-to-face with them?

I add few comments but I think we can add more, in particular, our concerns in general regarding the process and not just responding to BC and IPC requests.

We need a deadline to get this done and prior to Abud Dhabi meeting if we may want to continue the discussion there and depending on how things go with the cross-community session. I propose that we reach a new version by this Friday.

[You can read/edit it here.](https://docs.google.com/document/d/13ujYOpJFL0eNvjQCiNmsduFFbiUPQC5Wmbe9wHC2K6Q/edit?usp=sharing) I know the language is provocative (intentionally so), but this is a first draft -- and if you disapprove please provide alternative language.
