Taking into account the current requirements for termination in the context of a PDP ('In the case of a proposed termination of a PDP prior to the issuance of a Final Report or suspension of a PDP upon the recommendation of the PDP Team, the GNSO liaison to the PDP Team shall promptly submit to the Council a written Termination Summary or Suspension Summary specifying the reasons for the recommended action to be taken and, if applicable, the points of view represented in the PDP Team and the consensus status (as defined by the GNSO Working Group Guidelines) at the time such action is recommended’), maybe my original suggestion could be enhanced as follows: The GNSO Council will prepare a formal report on the proposed termination or suspension of a GGP outlining the reasons for the proposed action, current status of the GGP, and the points of view represented in the GGP Team and the consensus status, if applicable (as defined by the GNSO Working Group Guidelines), and expected next steps, if any. If the GGP was initiated in response to a request from the ICANN Board, the GNSO Council will share this formal report with the ICANN Board for its information’. Anne, Chuck, does that address your comments / concerns?

It seems to me that even more information could be provided to the Board in such circumstances if that addressed the IPC concern. For example, we could include minority statements from groups or individuals who opposed terminating the GGP and why.

The WG could consider adding something along the following lines: ‘in case the GGP was initiated in response to a request from the Board, the GNSO Council will share this formal report with the ICANN Board for its information’, if that addresses Anne’s concern?

It might be very possible to list majority opinions (if there are any) and minority opinions without continuing the GGP.

Without any advice, not even a listing of majority and minority opinions, the Board proceeds without GNSO input. Anne [cid:image001.gif@01D08695.9A1179B0] Anne E.

I have a follow-up question for you: What value is there is continuing a GGP if at least a simple majority of the Council doesn’t believe that it will be productive? Chuck From:owner-gnso-policyimpl-wg@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:owner-gnso-policyimpl-wg@xxxxxxxxx> [mailto:owner-gnso-policyimpl-wg@xxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Aikman-Scalese, Anne Sent: Thursday, April 30, 2015 9:15 PM To: 'Marika Konings'; gnso-policyimpl-wg@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:gnso-policyimpl-wg@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [gnso-policyimpl-wg] RE: For your review - updated public comment review tool Thanks Marika. The rationale behind the IPC response to Q 12.5 is that the GGP is likely to be used most often when the ICANN Board requests input in relation to an issue that arises during implementation, whether as a result of new facts learned, or as a result of new GAC or other advice. For example, if ALAC asks the Board to halt launch of all gTLDs that require safeguards, the Board might want to initiate a GGP and if GNSO Council does not vote this down by a supermajority, the GGP would proceed. Given that the Board is seeking an answer and seeking to reconcile differences of opinion in the community, the question should require the same Supermajority to terminate as a PDP. Terminating via simple majority could be a method of stonewalling and getting the result one was not able to achieve when the vote was taken on the Board-initiated GGP. (In other words, why would it only take a simple majority to terminate a GGP when it takes a supermajority to stop a GGP from being commenced if initiated by the ICANN Board?)
