  3. In October 2013 the GNSO Council approved the formation of a Drafting Team to develop a Charter for a new CCWG to take forward and synthesize the initial work of the GNSO and the ccNSO feedback, and develop a final framework of operating principles that can function effectively across all SO/ACs relating to the formation, operation, decision making and termination of future CWGs (the "Final Framework of Operating Principles for Future CCWGs");
  4. The ccNSO Council and GNSO Council approved the Charter for the new CCWG to develop the Final Framework for Future CCWGs in March 2014;
  5. The CCWG published a proposed initial Framework for public comment in February 2016;
  6. Following review of public comments received and further community deliberations at ICANN56 in June 2016, the CCWG completed its proposed Final Framework and submitted it to the ccNSO and GNSO Councils on 19 September 2016

 

RESOLVED:

 

  1. The GNSO Council approves the Final Framework of Operating Principles for Future CCWGs.
  2. The GNSO Council thanks the CCWG for its work on developing and finalizing the Final Framework.
  3. The GNSO Council directs ICANN staff, upon the ccNSO Council’s adoption of the Final Framework, to inform all SO/ACs of the two Councils’ adoption of the Final Framework, and recommends that the principles and recommendations contained in the Final Framework be consulted by the ICANN community in considering the creation of all future CCWGs.
