STATUS UPDATES
| Date | Phase | Type | Status Updates |
|---|---|---|---|
| Closed | Phase Change | This Advice Item will now be Closed |
| Phase 5 | AP Feedback | ICANN received confirmation from the RSSAC that the items included in the letter (https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/olive-to-osborn-22jun23-en.pdf) from David Olive can be formally closed. |
| Phase 5 | Phase Change | Now in Phase 5: Close |
| Phase 3 | Phase Update | This advice has been taken over by subsequent events and is no longer relevant. Specifically, the Third Accountability and Transparency Review (ATRT3) has issued recommendations that have direct impact on Organizational Reviews (see Recommendation 3.6 which calls for Organizational Reviews to evolve into a Continuous Improvement Program). The Board approved these recommendations subject to prioritization. Community prioritization placed recommendation 3.6 into P2 category and implementation design is currently underway. The Board deferred all upcoming Organizational Reviews to allow for the implementation of ATRT3 recommendations. This Advice will be moved to Phase 5 | Close. |
| Phase 3 | Phase Change | Now in Phase 3: Evaluate & Consider |
| Phase 2 | AP Feedback | ICANN received confirmation of understanding from the RSSAC. |
| Phase 2 | Board Understanding | The ICANN org understands RSSAC041 Recommendation 3 to mean that the ICANN org should continue to use its Request for Proposal process to select the Independent Examiner for reviews. The process should be modified to ensure that the Independent Examiners are experts in assessment frameworks and methodologies and that they are not from the ICANN community. |
| Phase 2 | Phase Update | Updated Understanding sent to RSSAC for review. |
| Phase 2 | AP Feedback | ICANN received confirmation of Understanding from the RSSAC. |

Because this recommendation will be addressed via a separate process, there is no further action for the ICANN Board in the context of the Board Advice process, and this item will be closed. |
