RE: [gnso-osc-csg] Actions/Summary: 26 March 2010 Meeting

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Krista,
 
My understanding was that it meant all types of GNSO meetings including
SG, Constituency and Interest Group policy meetings.
 
Chuck

        Thanks for the clarification Chuck.  I think I must have
misunderstood the recommendation.  I didn't realize it was related to
GNSO meetings, but was thinking it was related to stakeholder group,
constituency, and interest group policy meetings.  By way of example, I
thought the recommendation was saying that the RrSG would have to open
it's discussions on policy (or policy meetings) to the public, but from
your response I can see I misunderstood.

         

        Thanks!

        Krista

        It's a good question Krista.  With regard to policy working
sessions that occur during ICANN international meetings, the GNSO has a
practice of making those meetings open to the public on a space
available basis except when otherwise stated.  For teleconference
meetings, the call info is usually restricted to identified members or
invited guests.

                Can someone explain to me why {GROUPs} would want to
open their Policy Committee Meetings to the public?

                I think Mary's suggestions are excellent and I support
either version. My view is these committees ---where all the crucial
work of the Groups is done -most definitely need transparency, term
limits and openness, real rotation of members and leaders as well as
disclosure of work and work product -at least within the Group.  This is
not currently happening in some Groups and goes to the very heart of all
reforms.  

                 

                Best regards,

                Hello,
                
                Mary sent her suggestions and there are two alternative:


                 

                #1: "Policy Committee meetings shall be open for
attendance by all {GROUP} members, and, subject to any express
provisions otherwise in a {GROUP} Charter, shall also be open for
attendance by the public."

                 

                #2: "Policy Committee meetings shall be open for
attendance by all {GROUP} members, and, subject only to the conditions
specified in this Section 8(b), shall also be open for attendance by the
public. These conditions are either that (i) the {GROUP} Charter
expressly restricts attendance at a particular type of Policy Committee
meeting; or (ii) the Policy Committee decides, in its reasonable
discretion, that the nature of a particular Policy Committee meeting is
such that attendance should be limited only to {GROUP} members. Provided
that, in the case of condition (ii), the Policy Committee shall inform
all {GROUP} members of its decision to restrict attendance at the
meeting as soon as practicable and in any case prior to the commencement
of the meeting, and it shall further use reasonable efforts to make
public any decisions taken at that meeting as soon as possible
thereafter."

                
                Regards
