Motion to Adopt Revised PDP Manual Incorporating Modifications to Include the 
Suspension of a PDP


Made by: Wolf-Ulrich Knoben
Seconded by:
WHEREAS:
Having encountered the need to suspend a Policy Development Process (PDP) for a 
limited amount of time, the GNSO Council realized that currently the PDP Manual 
does not contain a specific provision on how to deal with such a situation;
The GNSO Council requested the Standing Committee on Improvements 
Implementation (SCI) in April 2012 to review whether there should be a 
modification to the GNSO PDP Manual to address the possible suspension of a PDP 
following its initiation;
The SCI deliberated on provisions for suspension of a PDP and reached consensus 
on proposed modifications to be incorporated in Section 15 of the GNSO PDP 
Manual, which also is included as Annex 2 in the GNSO Council Operating 
Procedures;
The revised PDP manual, including the proposed provisions for suspension of a 
PDP, was put out for a minimum 21-day public comment period on 22 October 2012 
and a 21-day reply comment period ending on 03 December (see 
http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/gnso-pdp-manual-22oct12-en.htm) as 
required by the ICANN Bylaws;
The SCI determined that the result of the public comment period required no 
further changes , but in order to clarify the definition of a suspension the 
SCI amended the footnote to include the word "stated" and to delete the words 
"until further notice" as illustrated in the redlined section at INSERT LINK;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED
The GNSO Council adopts the revised PDP Manual including the providing for the 
suspension of a PDP (see INSERT LINK TO REVISED GNSO COUNCIL OPERATING 
PROCEDURES).
The GNSO Council instructs ICANN staff to post the new version of the PDP 
Manual and to include it as a revised Annex 2 in the GNSO Operating Procedures, 
effective immediately upon adoption.

An excerpt of the PDP manual modified to address suspension of a PDP is 
attached.
The SCI agreed to submit this motion although an issue which came up after the 
reply comment period is still being discussed but nevertheless expected to be 
solved in advance to the council meeting. Still under discussion is the 
footnote 1 in para 15 of the modified PDP manual. In the less likely case of no 
consensus the motion and agenda item shall be withdrawn.


Best regards
Wolf-Ulrich
