Response Regarding Variance in Refunds
In response to the comment provided by Mikey O'Connor on 5/13/13, ICANN staff is providing the following information: The slide #38 of the FY14 draft operating plan and budget includes a variance comment on refunds which is inconsistent with the variance of the refunds that appears in the table on the same slide (-$17M). The figures reflected on the table are correct. However, the explanation should be corrected. The corrected explanation is listed below: Total projected withdrawals 646 vs. 545 budgeted. The total number of applications listed reflects withdrawals to date and projected withdrawals. A table listing the variances by each refund milestone is attached. Cherrie S.
