-- As of 20 May 2019 there is a temporary consensus policy.

-- While some updates may be necessary for the procedural aspects of the URS and supplemental rules, there may only need to be one modification needed to the URS rules.

3. Public Comment Tool:

a. Background (introduced on 04 March): https://docs.google.com/document/d/13hDBmPZnazCz2Tv4yFOyBJsMEHOL5K1LQh7krGJ_7mc/edit?usp=sharing
-- URS Recommendation #1 pertains to the EPDP work. Staff sent an update to the URS Deliberations document showing in redline the staff proposed edits.
b. Next Steps: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rUr_YS7PbxFDapazk2wtGxPulPsxgL76P45uCsSvSyg/edit
-- Numbers 2, 3, and 4 are the overarching charter questions are in the Charter.
-- Question: Numbers 1 and 5 are not in the Charter. Why is that? Also, what about the other General questions? Answer: When reviewing the topics for the URS there is a table with a section on the overarching questions, numbers 1-5.
-- In the deliberations of the WG some of these questions came up off and on. These came up during the URS discussions.
-- Missing is the set of general questions in the Charter and the general effectiveness of the RPMs. Those should be added to the Next Steps document.
-- Text added with new question relating to the additional marketplace RPMs: “In addition, based on an early suggestion from one of its Sub Teams, the Working Group is expected to consider the following general question related to the additional marketplace RPMs: “How, and to what extent, does use of Protected Marks Lists (e.g. blocking services) affect the utilization of other RPMs, especially Sunrise registrations?” This question is related to the Overarching Charter Question #3 as described above.”
ACTION ITEM: Staff will review the Charter to make sure any overarching issues are reflected in the Next Steps document and in the Charter Questions annex.
