The Bylaws Drafting Team (DT) was created in part to provide the GNSO Council with a draft implementation plan for any necessary updates to the GNSO Operating Procedures, or possibly the Bylaws as they relate to the GNSO, arising as a result of the revised ICANN Bylaws that were adopted in May. The Council has requested that this DT submit the proposed implementation plan by 30 September (see http://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20160630-2 for the full Council resolution).
Although the DT will be working to a tight timeline, please note that the implementation plan for the Council is not intended to include specific language for new or amended rules and procedures. Drafting of these new or amended processes will therefore likely begin only after completion and approval of the implementation plan. The understanding is that the initial task of the DT will be to identify and agree on what new or additional obligations the GNSO now has as a result of the revised Bylaws. Following that initial task, the DT should then see what (if any) existing GNSO processes can be used to address that new or additional obligation, and if there are none, whether an existing process can be modified or if a new process needs to be created. Staff anticipates that these points will be highlighted in the implementation plan, which will also contain proposed timelines for developing and adopting any amendments or new processes.
To assist in the DT’s initial work, staff prepared the attached table that we distributed to the GNSO Council for its information just before the Helsinki meeting. We prepared the table to facilitate the GNSO’s implementation of the new Bylaws, and welcome your feedback, corrections and updates. Of course, the DT should not feel constrained to use or rely solely on the staff table, but we hope that it is a helpful starting point at least. The staff table can also be downloaded from the GNSO website at https://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/revised-bylaws-notes-comments-procedures-14jun16-en.pdf.
