As discussed during ICANN59 in Johannesburg, the GNSO Council is looking to form a Standing Committee consisting of interested GNSO Council members focused on the ICANN Budget and Operational Plan. You will recall that the GNSO Council submitted comments as part of the FY17 & FY18 ICANN draft budget and operating plans. These past efforts have been ad hoc and somewhat reactionary. Given changes to the ICANN bylaws and the new powers afforded to the Empowered Community, one of which is the power to reject the ICANN budget, it was discussed that the formation of this new Standing Committee could formalize the Council’s consideration of future budget cycles in a more proactive and continuous manner. A draft call for volunteers (page 1) and a draft charter (remaining pages) [BC1] were created and available for review and provide further context.context (https://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/draft-icann-budget-operations-charter-04oct17-en.pdf)
Here, the Council will discuss the path forward and determine overall interest in the formation of this standing committee.

Item 6: COUNCIL DISCUSSION – Planning for ICANN60 (10 minutes)
During ICANN59, the proposed block schedule for ICANN60 was shared (https://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/icann60-draft-prelim-block-schedule-27jun17-en.pdf) – note that further updates have been made as a result of the SO/AC Planning Committee and the resulting cross-community session selections (https://meetings.icann.org/sites/default/files/icann60_block_sched_v1.3.pdf). Based on requests received to date from the different GNSO PDP WGs, CCWGs WGs, and cross community session landscape, the Council leadership has revised its draft GNSO schedule for Council input and review, available here. Following Council review, this draft GNSO schedule will again be shared with the GNSO Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies to facilitate their planning and scheduling.
