Item 7: COUNCIL DISCUSSION – Proposed Fundamental Bylaw Changes (15 minutes) 

On 23 May 2017, the ICANN organization sent a notice to the Empowered Community (EC) that the ICANN Board has approved amendments to ICANN’s Fundamental Bylaws to move the Board Governance Committee’s reconsideration responsibilities to another Board Committee. This notice triggered the Bylaws-mandated process according to which the EC is to consider whether to approve the amendments before they can go into effect. 

On 27 June 2017 at ICANN59, the first Community Forum under the revised ICANN Bylaws will be held to discuss the proposal, and the EC will be coming together to exercise one of the EC's new powers under the revised ICANN Bylaws.

Here, the Council will discuss the proposed Fundamental Bylaw change and plan for next steps.
