The issue has been overseen within At-Large by Alan Greenberg, who also acted as the Chair of the GNSO WG. At its meeting of 23 August 2011, the ALAC requested that Alan draft a statement for discussion and ultimate approval by the ALAC. The initial draft was reviewed by the regional representatives on the ALAC ExCom and the revised draft below is the result. ALAC Chair, Olivier Crépin-Leblond, has requested that comments be submitted by ALAC and At-Large for a five day period ending 9 September, 2011, followed by a five day vote of the ALAC.

At the same time, the ALAC advises that the Board, in consultation with the community (and in particular the user community), duly consider what might be done to ensure that, in the future, the multi-stakeholder model can be strengthened to allow users to more equitably influence the outcomes in future policy discussions. Such evolution is a core necessity identified by ICANN's Accountability and Transparency review as well as to meet the goals of its Strategic Plan.
