ALAC/GAC PSWG bilateral; Tuesday 7 June 2022 at 15:15 UTC for 45 minutes.

Following up to the the Action Point recorded in the GAC Minutes of ICANN72 that reiterated both communities' desire to ensure that "GAC and ALAC volunteers to work together to consider possible targeted recommendations of concrete and enforceable contract provisions regarding the mitigation of DNS Abuse to inform future negotiations between ICANN and contracted parties." a joint meeting of the GAC PSWG and a Small DNS Abuse work group was held.

The PSWG expressed their convicion that DNS Abuse was an important topic worthy of further discussion and consideration, yet during the meeting both communites consnted to posponing any formal engagement in drafting concrete proposals, including working on a white paper. This was due to recent developments, and in particular the release by the European Commission of a substantial study of DNS Abuse (see report and technical annex), which required careful analysis.
