Re: [gnso-policyimpl-wg] RE: Draft GNSO Fast Track PDP & Chuck's edit of the Draft GNSO Guidance Process: documents
Anne, it is my understanding that the EDDP would mainly be used in the case of consensus policies as otherwise the Council could just as easily use the GNSO Guidance Process. The criteria for invoking an EDDP specifically focus on modifying consensus policies after they have been adopted / implemented or issues that have been previously scoped as part of a PDP or other effort. Unless an input request from the Board would meet these criteria, an EDDP could not be initiated by the GNSO Council.

Unless I completely misunderstand, it seems to me possible that the ICANN Board might request “Guidance”, but the Council might determine EPDP is required.

Attached please see a few comments/questions regarding the Expedited PDP draft. As previously mentioned, I think it is important that the WG look at the interaction between the Guidance Process and the Expedited PDP provisions, especially as to which one to use in which circumstances. In this regard, my initial impressions prior to discussion with the WG on the call are as follows: 1. EPDP should require Council vote affirming that appropriate circumstances as laid out in the draft process do in fact obtain. I think we are saying this requires Supermajority vote when Consensus Policy is involved, but it may not be necessary to require Supermajority vote when Consensus Policy is not involved. The point of my comments in the draft is to seek certainty in connection with any Council vote on whether these circumstances obtain. In other words, I think the Council vote, once taken, should not be open to question on this point. 2. Only the Council should initiate EPDP by vote and that neither the Board nor an AC should be able to initiate EPDP. 3. I think that the Board and ACs SHOULD be able to initiate a Guidance Process and that if the GNSO Council believes that Guidance Process is insufficient, it should initiate EPDP. 4. An EPDP which fails to garner a Supermajority vote for initiation should be eligible for consideration to initiate a Guidance Process at the same GNSO Council meeting UNLESS the issue involves a change in Consensus Policy. 5. It should be clear that staff will assist in preparation of the scoping document. This may be assumed but is it clear enough? 6. It is not clear to me from the EPDP manual provisions whether the scoping requirements are mandatory or “recommended” as contained in the title of the provision. (The text itself says “must…at a minimum”. Thanks for all your hard work in the drafting under significant time pressure I am sure. (As a footnote, I think we should drop the term “guidance” in the file name for the EPDP since we are dealing with the differences between the GGP “Guidance” process and the Expedited PDP, which is arguably a different animal for the Guidance Process.)
